9TH MEETING OF THE EUROPEAN MYOCARDIAL AND PERICARDIAL DISEASE OF THE ESC
www.cardiomyopthies2012.com Presented by: University of Florence Itally
It is a great pleasure to invite you to the II “Florence International Symposiumon Advances in Cardiomyopathies” , 9th Meeting of the Myocardial and Pericardial diseases Working Group of the European Society of Cardiology, to be held in Florence on 26-28th September 2012.
Patients with Cardiomyopathies constitute an increasingly large proportion of patients seen by most cardiologists. This class of diseases can cause important and often unsolved management problems, despite rapid advances in the field. On the other hand, few other areas of cardiology have seen such an impressive contribution from basic science and translational research to the understanding of pathophysiology and clinical management.
The course is designed to constantly promote close interaction between basic science and clinical practice, and will be preceded by two Minicourses with How-to sessions and Illustrative case study presentations. It is an attempt to address the topic in a global fashion, and therefore could be of interest to a very wide audience, including physicians, clinical researchers, cardiologists, pathologists, basic scientists, and young investigators.
A wide and open discussion among all the participants is welcome.We hope that the Florence Meeting 2012 will be extremely productive, able to provide you with an opportunity to improve your understanding of this area of cardiology and to stimulate further research into the field. We look forward to welcoming you in Florence next September.
Arrivederci a Firenze !!
