Our colleagues Dr. Rita Papp and Dr. Bakytbek Egemnazarov both won the 2nd poster award in the category preclinical research of the meeting „4. Forschungwerkstatt – Pulmonary Hypertension”. The meeting, organised by Bayer Vital and under the scientific leadership of Prof. Werner Seeger, took place on February 27th and 28th, 2015 in Berlin.

The poster of Dr. Rita Papp is entitled “Increased expression of TMEM16A may lead to depolarisation of human pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells in IPAH”. Dr. Egemnazarov presented the topic “COMP as a possible negative regulator of TGF-beta signaling. Role in the right ventricular fibrosis.” He is proud that the work of our team is not only recognised but also honoured by the scientific community. Dr. Egemnazarov: “It is a good feeling to have such a positive feedback.”
