Description: "This volume, the result of three days of interactive sessions among world leaders in the cardiac sciences, summarizes the most up-to-date information about development and cardiogenesis signaling in cell-based therapy, as well as developmental aspects of the formation of the embryonic heart, including the effect of mechanical load on differentiation."--Society website.
Notes: "This volume presents manuscripts stemming from the 6th Larry and Horti Fairberg Workshop, entitled "Analysis of Cardiac Development, From Embryo to Old Age," held on March 30 to April 1, 2009 in Haifa, Israel, and organized by the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology and the Rambam Medical Center, Haifa, Israel."--P. v.
