KurzbeschreibungThe ETHeart Joint Scientific Colloquium resides at the intersection of cardiovascular medicine with biologics, bio-materials, devices, sensors, robotics, and data science. The aim of the course is to provide a basic understanding of the cardiovascular disease and underlying (patho-) physiology as well as current therapeutic challenges and novel engineering solutions.
LernzielJoin this course if you want to:
• Get Engineering – Cardiovascular Medical Cross-training
• Get Basic knowledge of cardiovascular physiology and pathology
• Understand the current challenges from the medical perspective
• Join the Community of cardiovascular research enthusiasts at ETH
• Practice your Discussion and Presentation Delivery Skills
InhaltThe course will include presentations on Zurich Heart and ETHeart projects, as well as lectures on chosen topics in cardiovascular medicine and research given by leading international clinical scientists, many of whom are coming from the German Heart Center of Charité Berlin.

This highly interactive, on-line course encourages participants to actively contribute, ask questions, and provide feedback during the lectures, presentations, and discussions. The course is open and welcomes students from all backgrounds as the field of cardiovascular medicine and therapy development is multidisciplinary in nature.

Timely and didacticaly stuctured presentations and lectures on chosen topics of cardiovascular medicine and research will be given by medical doctors, translational scientists and students in the field. Each presentation is followed by in depth discussion.
Voraussetzungen / BesonderesThis course does not require any specific prerequisites, but it would be beneficial for students to have a foundational knowledge of the cardiovascular system, physiology and biomedical research. Additionally, as a requirement of the course, each participant will be expected to present their own scientific work or topic of interest (10-minute presentation) during one of the four sessions and provide a written assay (600 words) at the end of the course.
