Welcome to the Scientific Programme for Heart Failure 2007
Broaden your knowledge of the expanding role of biomarkers in heart failure. Don’t miss the great key note lecture by the renowned Eugene Braunwald addressing the future of biomarkers in heart failure, attend a main session on this topical subject, a debate and a session on novel biomarkers.
Other sessions will be covering management and nursing programmes for heart failure. Be present at the launch of a translational track for early translational studies in which basic science is introduced into the clinical arena. There is also an educational track for discussion of clinical issues in the day-to-day practice of heart failure.
Enjoy and learn with this programme containing many scientific highlights, bringing together worldwide experts in heart failure and a large number of outstanding speakers from all over the world.
NEW THIS YEAR:
We asked the Heart Failure 2007 committee members to tell us in a few words what is new and different about this 2007 edition and to advise where to find all key links you might need to make the most of it, read The joys of debating, Braunwald & biomarkers, and much more.
