# Charting a New Course for Heart Failure: From Discovery to Data

> **NIH NIH R13** · KEYSTONE SYMPOSIA · 2020 · $20,100

## Abstract

ABSTRACT
Support is requested for a Keystone Symposia conference entitled Charting a New Course for Heart Failure:
From Discovery to Data, organized by Drs. Mansoor Husain, Benoit G. Bruneau and Marc Pfeffer. The
conference will be held in Keystone, Colorado from March 1-5, 2020.
Heart failure is global health problem of increasing prevalence, high morbidity, and refractory mortality, for
which there have been relatively few impactful therapeutic advances. This unique multidisciplinary conference
will bring together leading clinicians and scientists to share the latest insights on genetic, environmental,
iatrogenic and pathophysiological mechanisms of heart failure. The program includes specific sessions and
workshops focused on advances in cardiac fibrosis, immunology, metabolism, regenerative medicine,
biomedical engineering, and analytical approaches to large datasets of relevance to this disease. Although the
program is diverse, each session will address a scientific frontier in heart failure biology of potential therapeutic
relevance and will be framed to address an unanswered, important clinical question. This innovative format is
purposefully planned to highlight translational opportunities in heart failure and to provide a forum that
encourages dialogue between cardiovascular researchers and trainees with distinct perspectives, but who
share a common goal of making an impact in heart failure. This conference will be paired with “New Insights
into the Biology of Exercise.” These two Keystone Symposia conferences will share a joint session examining
exercise physiology and how it affects cardiac energetics and hypertrophy, which will be of interest to
audiences attending either conference.
