2014 CVI Member Retreat
The Future of Cardiovascular Medicine & Research
The heart by its nature unifies many disciplines. The Stanford Cardiovascular Institute, established in 2004, consists of engineers, surgeons, physicians, scientists and some of the countries brightest fellows and students.
In an era of constant change and innovations the Cardiovascular Institute leverages the incredible intellectual manpower found within Stanford University. The Stanford School of Medicine, Stanford Hospital & Clinics, Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital, the Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine, Humanities & Sciences, Engineering, and Business schools are all located entirely on Stanford’s Silicon Valley campus. This intimate proximity promotes creative collaborations among a diverse mix of students, faculty, and scientists.
For this year’s Retreat, we have asked our selected members to dig deep into the past and project the future of their specialties. Whether it’s clinical science, imaging, stem cells, big data, women’s health or biomaterials and devices, the goal is to propel research that ensures a future in which we minimize damaging one of nature’s most delicate organs.
