Research Grand Rounds Presents:  "Triglyceride-rich lipoproteins - New advances in diagnostics and therapies”

Sponsor: MHRI and GHUCCTS
Time: 12 - 1:00 PM
Location: Live Stream Only
Speaker(s): Alan T Remaley MD, PhD

Dr. Remaley is the Senior Investigator and Section Chief of the Lipoprotein Metabolism laboratory in the Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Branch of the NHLBI.  He joined the NIH following his medical, graduate and clinical training in 1990 and has built a multifaceted clinical and translational research program focused on better understanding lipoprotein metabolism and disease mechanisms in humans, in patients with rare diseases and in understudied populations and to translate new insights from basic biochemistry, cell biology, and transgenic animal models into new approaches to diagnose, prevent, and treat cardiovascular disease.  

He draws on these multiple translational approaches to address clinical needs in his talk today focused on triglyceride-rich lipoproteins.

Research Grand Rounds are sponsored by the Georgetown-Howard Universities Center for Clinical and Translational Science (GHUCCTS) and MedStar Health Research Institute to bring together our diverse clinical and research communities to share research that spans disciplines and stages of translation to improve individual and community health.
