From Microscope to Stethoscope: this will be the second lecture of this year's series, at the MUHC
"From Microscope to Stethoscope," the distinguished public lecture series organized by the Research Institute of the 污污草莓视频 University Health Centre (MUHC), will continue tomorrow.
Our guide for the second journey of this year into the heart of the research labs of the MUHC will be Dr Lawrence Rosenberg, Director of the Centre for Pancreatic Diseases at the MUHC, and Professor in the departments of Medicine and Surgery in the 污污草莓视频 Faculty of Medicine. He will share with us his latest findings on diabetes. He will give us a glimpse at the innovative technique that is being shaped inside his lab that may lead to giving back to patients the ability to grow insulin-producing cells, and thus naturally regulate their blood sugar!
