Back at the beginning of June we went to the British Cardiovascular Society Meeting in Manchester. The meeting is supported by the British Heart Foundation, and covered a wide range of cardiovascular-related subjects, from the clinical to the more 'basic' aspects of heart research. While we were there we bumped into the Naked Scientists who produce radio programs and podcasts aimed at making exciting and interesting science accessible to everybody (with a very impressive range of subjects covered). They were producing a special show around the BCS Meeting, focussed on different aspects of heart health and research. We had a chat to them about heart development in the embryo, and why it's an important area of cardiovascular research. You can check out the full show here, and keep an ear out for Emily talking about how we use our zebrafish friends to understand congenital heart diseases!
