Recenzje

This book is the result of close collaboration between clininical and research scientists, both sharing the common objective of improving cardiovascular health through the prism of developmental biology [...] This volume will undoubtedly become the new reference for the bridge between clinicians and research scientists in the field and provide an entry point for both into the technologies and new therapeutic avenues brought by cardiovascular developmental biology
