We would love to hear your thoughts on the episodes!I’m Dr Thomas Nero.  At Future Pulse our goal is to investigate the future of cardiovascular research and promote that discussion. What is the next step and how will this trickle down to our clinical practice? What’s exciting and new in our field and why should we be interested.  We will also look at the other side of the equation: how are we going to get these ideas off the ground?  How are we going to make the transition from theory to practice?  These discussions will involve benchtop researchers and clinical researchers as well as Venture capitalists and Industry Leaders.  We will pick the brains of our thought leaders, not just about where we are now but what the landscape will look like in the next 5-10 years.  Cardiology is an exciting and quickly evolving field and cardiovascular research is in the vanguard.  Come along with us and stay at the head of the pack
