A PhD positions is available in the Regenerative Angiogenesis lab (Dr. Andrea Banfi) at University of Basel in a Swiss National Science Foundation-funded project. The candidate will use single-cell transcriptomics to comprehensively dissect the cellular and molecular mechanisms of normal vs aberrant angiogenesis in skeletal muscle under therapeutically relevant conditions of angiogenic factor delivery.
SSMVR is proud to sponsor the upcoming European Society of Microcirculation 2023 Conference, taking place in Aarhus (Denmark) on 24-27 April 2023!
The conference boasts an amazing group of faculty, who will deliver wonderful, insightful lectures on many aspects of the microcirculation: SSMVR member Prof. Katrien De Bock will be Plenary Speaker.
Postdoc/PhD positions available in the Regenerative Medicine Technologies Lab within an ERC grant moved to Switzerland. The 5 years project deals with the study of vascular aging combining microphysiological systems and omics. Details on ssmvr.ch or vascularaging.eoc@gmail.com
SSMVR is happy to announce the next series of virtual Swiss Vascular Biology Talks, which will feature leaders in the field of angiogenesis, leukocyte trafficking and tumor vasculature.

The overall theme of conference will be “Hypertension”, and the meeting will officially start on Wednesday Nov. 2 at 5.30 pm with two Keynote Lectures illuminating this topic either from a basic science or from a clinical perspective:
Hemoglobin as a target for hypertension
title to be announced
Like in previous years, the 5th Swiss Vascular Research Symposium of the SSMVR will be an integral part of this meeting and will be held on Thursday, Nov. 3, 2022. To accommodate many oral presentations of PhD students and young Postdocs, we are again dedicating two Free Communication sessions to selected abstracts. In total 8 slots for oral presentations are available. In addition, all poster presenters will be asked to briefly pitch their work during the Poster Flash presentations held right before to the Poster Session. All presenters of Free Communications and Posters will have the chance to win an award for the best presentation. In sum, the Symposium will offer plenty of opportunities to present your research and / or to interact with other scientists working in the Vascular Biology field!
To participate, please register and submit your abstract before July 24, 2022 under https://www.unionstagung.ch
Extended deadline for online abstract submission. The new deadline is July 31st 2022!
