Message from the Council Chair
Welcome to the ATVB Council Web site. The council strives to promote research in vascular and thrombotic diseases. We contribute to these efforts in numerous ways. These include organizing our council meeting in the spring and actively contributing to the AHA Scientific Sessions in the fall. These meetings facilitate the dissemination of our research and promote networking among our members. The council presents several awards at these meetings that recognize the achievements of our members from the early to established phases of their careers. The council is also proud of its ATVB journal. This high-impact journal publishes original research findings that are subjected to rigorous peer review and solicits reviews from authoritative research thought leaders.
We encourage you to become a member of the ATVB Council. Several membership options are available, including reduced rates for trainees. We particularly encourage you to become a Fellow of the American Heart Association (FAHA). Details of membership and fellowship nomination are provided below.
If you have any suggestions for augmenting the council's activities, please feel free to contact me. I look forward to your involvement in the ATVB Council.
Best Wishes,
Lawrence Rudel, Ph.D., FAHA
Chair, Council on Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology
