SUMMARY:Heart & Vascular Institute Cardiovascular Symposium: Cardiovascular Disease from Prevention to Intervention
DESCRIPTION:Registration is now open for the Heart & Vascular Institute Cardiovascular Symposium: Cardiovascular Disease from Prevention to Intervention\, a continuing education service of Penn State College of Medicine taking place Friday\, May 8\, 2026\, as an internet live course and live at the University Conference Center. View details and register here. \nCardiovascular Disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the US. This is due to the lack of adequate therapeutics that can target underlying disease mechanisms and stop disease progression. Due to this\, it is being increasingly recognized by the physicians\, learners and community partners that\, in addition to therapy\, prevention (to stop disease progression) is critical to control progression of CVDs in patients. However\, lack of understanding and unavailability of universally accepted standard practices hamper adequate realization of these goals in a clinical setting. This symposium will bring together a group of physicians\, practitioners and basic science researchers to discuss new inflammatory and immunological molecular mechanisms of CVDs and the role of preventive therapies in synergizing existing therapeutics to stop disease progression and promote patient well-being.
