We are thrilled to announce our second keynote speaker: Prof. Jolanda van der Velden!
Prof. van der Velden is a leading expert in cardiac physiology and Chair of the Department of Physiology and the Department of Experimental Cardiology at Amsterdam UMC. Her research focuses on how sarcomere protein mutations contribute to inherited cardiomyopathies, with work spanning from bench to bedside.
Her lab combines single-cell and multicellular cardiac muscle studies, mitochondrial analyses in patient samples, and iPSC-derived heart models to explore how gene defects, diet, and aging influence disease progression.
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear her keynote talk:
“Progressive muscular and vascular ageing in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy” from one of the top translational researchers in cardiac disease.
Stay tuned, registration will open very soon!!
