The 7th Oulu Symposium
Advances in Molecular Mechanisms of Heart Failure and Myocardial Repair & Natriuretic Peptide Research
August 30th – September 2nd, 2012, Oulu, Finland
The symposium will bring together leading scientist to discuss topics at the forefront of heart failure and natriuretic peptide research. The meeting will be organised by Departments of Pharmacology and Toxicology and Physiology, the Finnish Centre of Excellence in Cardiovascular Diseases and Type 2 Diabetes Research, and Biocenter Oulu Doctoral Programme. Students, MDs and scientists at different stages of their career are encouraged to participate.
