CDB Symposium 2010 March 23-25,2010 Frontiers in Organogenesis

Speaker Profile

Benoit G. Bruneau

Benoit Bruneau is an Associate Investigator at the Gladstone Institute of Cardiovascular Disease, and Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the University of California, San Francisco. Dr. Bruneau obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Ottawa, where he studied the regulation of natriuretic peptides with Adolfo de Bold. He pursued his training as a postdoc in the lab of Jon and Christine Seidman at Harvard Medical School, studying cardiac transcription factors. Dr. Bruneau began his independent career as a Scientist at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, from 2001 until 2006, when he then joined the Gladstone Institute of Cardiovascular Disease in San Francisco, California.

Dr. Bruneau's research interests have focused on the transcriptional regulation of heart development and cardiac differentiation, and more recently how chromatin remodeling factors are critically relevant to heart development. His lab's studies pursue several genetic and biochemical avenues to elucidate how transcription factors and chromatin remodelling complexes regulates cardiac organogenesis and differentiation, in order to understand the basis of congenital heart disease and inherited heart diseases. These studies may also help to devise strategies to create new heart cells for regenerative therapy.
