The International Society for Cardiovascular Translational Research is proud to announce completion and deployment of the society’s new eTextbook.

The book’s 21 chapters from 85 renowned researchers provides a foundation for understanding the key aspects of bringing an idea for a cardiac therapy from initial concept to approved marketplace. ISCTR’s new digital endeavor is dedicated to expediting scientific discoveries and medical innovations.

The eTextbook format includes a newsletter section and allows for on-going updates and additions of pertinent new Translational Research.
