Presentation Transcript

  1. Medical Student Research Opportunities in the UCD Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Research Laboratory Ming-Sing Si, MD Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery Department of Surgery University of California Davis msi@ucdavis.edu

  2. Heart Function = systolic function + diastolic function

  3. Heart Failure • Inadequate systemic cardiac output as a result of systolic and/or diastolic dysfunction of the heart

  4. Self-Organized Cardiac Tissue Day 2 Day 4 Day 6

  5. Vascularization of EHT Generating capillary network with mesenchymal stem cells and endothelial cells

  6. Vascularization of EHT

  7. Taking our expertise in patient perfusion back to the bench to improve the generation of engineered cardiac tissue.

  8. Perfusion bioreactor for vacsularization project

  9. Medical Student Roles • Well-defined projects to match time commitment. • Productivity resulting in first-authored published abstracts and manuscripts are expected. • Will assist interested students in preparing applications for stipend/research funding. • Opportunities for students to also attend clinics and observe pediatric cardiac surgeries
