About the event
First Human and Veterinary Crossover Symposium on Aldosterone
The contribution of aldosterone to heart failure was the focus of a recent symposium, hosted by Ceva Santé Animale. The principle of this symposium was to promote expertise exchanges between human and veterinary medicine. The programme included eminent cardiology researchers from around the world, both from the human and veterinary fields.
You will find in this report a summary of the presentations and the discussions that took place, mixing state of the art science with the most recent clinical developments in man and animals.
We hope that you will both enjoy and benefit from the research compiled herein.
