Immunometabolic, Genetic and Molecular Mechanisms of Atherosclerosis

The Atherosclerosis GRS provides a unique forum for young doctoral and post-doctoral researchers to present their work, discuss new methods, cutting edge ideas, and pre-published data, as well as to build collaborative relationships with their peers. Experienced mentors and trainee moderators will facilitate active participation in scientific discussion to allow all attendees to be engaged participants rather than spectators.

This meeting will focus on recent advances and emerging techniques in atherosclerosis research, including immunometabolism, lipid metabolism, systems biological approaches, transcriptomics and genetic factors, and how these findings in atherosclerosis research may be leveraged for therapeutic application. Claudia Kemper will give a scientific keynote lecture.
