A seminar hosted by Prof Raimondo Ascione, Bristol Heart Institute

We are pleased to invite you to an insightful research talk presented by Dr. Atticus H. Hainsworth. Atticus is a translational neuroscientist who works on stroke and dementia. His main research interest is in small vessel disease, which is the main cause of vascular dementia.

Talk Overview:

In his talk, Dr. Hainsworth will explore the microvascular effects of endothelin-1 on the heart and brain using inducible transgenic pigs as a model. This research is particularly relevant for both cardiovascular and neuroscience groups, providing valuable insights into the intricate mechanisms linking vascular health in both organs.

Why Attend?

• Interdisciplinary Insights: Gain a deeper understanding of how endothelin-1 influences microvascular function in the heart and brain.
• Innovative Research: Learn about the use of inducible transgenic pigs in studying complex biological processes.
• Expert Speaker: Dr. Hainsworth's extensive research and expertise will provide a comprehensive and thought-provoking presentation.
