Yoon Lab Highlights from Emory’s 31st Annual Cardiology Research Symposium

At the 31st Annual Cardiology Research Symposium, the Yoon Lab was well represented with several exciting presentations:

  • Featured Faculty Speaker: Dr. Young-sup Yoon shared recent advances from the lab, focusing on vascular regeneration using stem cells, reprogrammed cells, and engineering technologies.
  • Presentation: Seonggeon Cho, PhD student, presented his work on “Direct conversion of human somatic cells into vasculomimetic tissue for enhanced and sustained neovascularization”, and was recognized with the Best Basic Science Oral Presentation award.
  • Poster: Kalp Soni, undergraduate student, presented a poster on “Modulating immune response via hydrogel surface chemistry for cell therapy in ischemic limb repair,” a project mentored by Dr. Viola Morris.

We’re proud of our team for contributing to the breadth of innovative research showcased at this year’s symposium. Congratulations to all presenters!
