NAVBO’S VASCULAR BIOLOGY PUBLICATION ALERT – DECEMBER 2006.

This is a monthly listing provided to NAVBO members.  The list contains references to papers in journals of general interest that relate very closely to vascular biology.  These are papers you may have missed while reviewing vascular related journals.  We hope you find it helpful.
