Dear colleagues,

On behalf of the executive committee of the intersection "Cardiovascular Biology" of the Life Science Switzerland (LS²) organization, we would like to invite you to participate in the Cardiovascular Research Meeting 2021!

This meeting was initially planned for March 2020 and due to COVID-19 restrictions we had to cancel it, but since then we have put all our efforts to offer you a new date and have now organized an online version of the program, which is split into two days on 15 and 17 of June 2021. Please note that the 16 of June there are no sessions.

Cardiovascular Research Meeting 2021

June 15 & June 17

ONLINE

This meeting is an annual event gathering close to 100 researchers from Switzerland and we hope that in our online version we will reach also international audience.

The executive committee has put together not only plenary sessions with keynote lectures and invited speakers but also several oral presentations selected from abstracst, ensuring enough time and room for young investigators to present their latest scientific findings.

And last but not least, we shall award prizes to the best oral presentations!

We are looking forward to a fruitful and enriching exchange among established experts and promising young researchers!

Sincerely,

The executive committee of the LS² intersection Cardiovascular Biology
