SUMMARY:McAllister Heart Institute Seminar Series: James F. Martin\, MD\, PhD\, "Hippo Signaling in Heart Regeneration"
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: James F. Martin\, MD\, PhD\, Vivian L. Smith Professor in Regenerative Medicine\, Baylor College of Medicine; Director\, Cardiomyocyte Renewal Lab\, Texas Heart InstituteTopic: “Hippo Signaling in Heart Regeneration” \nSeminar Synopsis: Dr. Martin is an internationally recognized developmental and regenerative biologist who has made fundamental contributions to our understanding of development\, disease\, and regeneration. He has authored more than 135 peer-reviewed papers in top journals such as Nature\, Science\, Cell\, Developmental Cell\, Plos Genetics\, Development\, and PNAS. His recent groundbreaking work on the Hippo pathway in heart size regulation is a landmark study that led to the insight that the Hippo pathway is an inhibitor of adult heart muscle regeneration. Dr. Martin’s insights revealed new avenues for treatment of human heart failure. Dr. Martin has made fundamental insights into the role of the transcription factor Pitx2 in atrial fibrillation\, the most common sustained arrhythmia in the human population. He made use of the mouse model to investigate Pitx2 in atrial homeostasis but also in left right asymmetric morphogenesis that is essential for human development. Dr. Martin’s studies investigating Pitx2 function in craniofacial development provided insight into the molecular basis of Rieger syndrome. He uncovered a pivotal function for Bmp signaling in endothelial-mesenchymal transition and cardiac valve development. Dr. Martin’s studies uncovered a novel role for canonical Wnt signaling in cardiac progenitor cell diversification. He found the first microRNA implicated in orofacial clefting. Dr. Martin’s studies are highly cited and also reported on by the lay media.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Anne Peery "Diverticulitis -- A Medical Perspective"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Peery focuses on benign conditions of the colon\, including diverticular disease and hemorrhoids. Despite the extremely common nature of these conditions\, there is little scientifically-based evidence to guide the care of patients with these commonly-encountered conditions. Indeed\, most of the algorithms of care for these diseases are governed by opinions and best guesses as to good practice rather than hard evidence. Dr. Peery’s research has challenged long-held beliefs about risk factors for uncomplicated diverticulosis and raised new questions about a long neglected disease. She recently served as a content expert and co-authored the guideline for the management of acute diverticulitis for the American Gastroenterological Association. She also co-authored a commentary that addressed a controversial recommendation generated by the guideline. \nDr. Peery recently received a career development award by the National Institutes of Health to study the effectiveness\, benefits\, and harms of antibiotics for acute diverticulitis. In addition\, this award will allow her to develop a novel patient-reported outcome measure for acute diverticulitis. Her group is also studying the utilization of surgery for non-malignant colorectal diseases.

SUMMARY:Integrated Care of Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: A Satellite Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Course Description – Integrated Care of Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: A Satellite Symposium – March 10\, 2018 (7:00am – 12:15pm)Atrial Fibrillation is best managed by treating it as a “chronic disease” with episodic symptoms which can be successfully managed through a coordinated multidisciplinary model. This symposium will provide education to primary care providers and cardiologists on the importance of an integrated model of care for AF and strategies for implementing such an approach. This event will be held at the The Friday Center in Chapel Hill on March 10\, 2018. \nAgenda Highlights: \n•Patient perspective: My life with Atrial Fibrillation – Marcia Van Riper\, RN\, PhD \n•Integrated care of Atrial Fibrillation: What is it and how do we get there? Anil Gehi\, MD \n•The importance of shared decision-making in discussions about anticoagulation and stroke prophylaxis – Zack Deyo\, PharmD \n•Addressing obesity/physical inactivity – Sriram Machineni\, MD
