Vasculata 2008 is being held at the University of Washington in Seattle.  It is being organized by Dr. Stephen Schwartz with his colleagues, Drs. David Dichek and Charles Murry.  The four-day meeting will feature lectures, round table discussions and a poster session.  See the preliminary program.

Vasculata is a summer course/workshop that promotes the study of vascular biology.  It is designed to present an overview of the field and future areas of active research.  Individuals with little or no background in vascular biology are encouraged to attend, and current trainees in the field and all interested individuals are invited to participate.  This includes students (undergraduates, graduate students, medical students), trainees (postdocs, research fellows, residents) and others (junior and senior faculty). 

All lectures and breakouts will be in the first floor auditorium, UW SLU Campus, Brotman Building, 815 Mercer Street, Seattle, WA 98109-4714.
