The Cardiovascular, Diabetes & Metabolic Disorders (CVDM) Research Center invites you to participate Friday, April 28th, 1 – 4PM in its sixth annual obesity incubator session. The goal of this session is to bring together BWH clinicians and researchers  working in the fields of obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease, to address this challenging public health crisis by promoting cross-collaborative research efforts and stimulating new ideas for further investigation.

To promote vibrant scientific discussions, the first portion of the day will feature short talks by select junior investigators in the field of obesity research and a keynote presentation from Morris J. Birnbaum, M.D., PhD, Chief Scientific Officer,  Cardiovascular and Metabolic Disease (CVMED) Research Unit, Pfizer.

Following the talks, there will be an interactive poster session focusing on early stage ideas in the area of obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.
