MHI Seminar Series presents Joshua D. Wythe, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Departments of Cell Biology & Neuroscience, University of Virginia School of Medicine

Summary of Seminar:  Brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) are composed of abnormal connections between arteries and veins that lack an intervening capillary network. As a result, high-pressure blood from feeding arteries shunts directly into veins. These structural anomalies undergo extensive remodeling, resulting in a tangle of enlarged blood vessels that are prone to rupture. Accordingly, bAVMs are … Read more
