Charting a New Course for Heart Failure: From Discovery to Data joint with New Insights into the Biology of Exercise Organizer(s): Mansoor Husain, Benoit G. Bruneau and Marc Pfeffer Date: March 01 - 05, 2020
Location: Keystone Resort, Keystone, CO, USAHeart failure is a global health problem of increasing prevalence. There have been few impactful therapeutic advances to mitigate the high morbidity, and refractory mortality of heart failure. This unique multidisciplinary conference will bring together leading clinicians and scientists to share their latest insights into the genetic, environmental, iatrogenic and pathophysiological mechanisms of heart failure. The meeting program includes sessions and workshops with a specific focus on advances in cardiac fibrosis, immunology, metabolism, regenerative medicine, biomedical engineering, and analytical approaches to large datasets of relevance to this disease. Each session will address a scientific frontier of potential therapeutic relevance in the biology of heart failure and will be framed as a response to an important, unanswered clinical question. This innovative format is intended to highlight translational opportunities in heart failure and to provide a forum that encourages dialogue between cardiovascular researchers and trainees with distinct perspectives, who share a common goal of making an impact in heart failure. This conference will be paired with “New Insights into the Biology of Exercise.” These two Keystone Symposia conferences will share a joint session examining exercise physiology and how it affects cardiac energetics and hypertrophy, which will be of open to attendees of either conference.
