VCIRC.ORG

VCIRC.ORG exists to build a teaching
laboratory devoted to the study of
molecular cardiovascular medicine in Roanoke. Students at VCIRC.ORG will
participate in a translational research
program focused on the relationship
between cellular oxygen supply and the
molecular biology of cardiovascular
inflammation. VCIRC.ORG is dedicated
to the development of the biomedical
science community in Roanoke, as
well as the study of cardiovascular molecular biology.

News & Events
