Visit from Prof Javid Moslehi: Advancing Cardio-Immunology in Newcastle
Prof Javid Moslehi is a prominent American cardiologist, physician-scientist, and myocyte biologist who serves as the William Grossman Distinguished Professor in Cardiology and Chief of the Section of Cardio-Oncology and Immunology at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) School of Medicine. He is widely recognised as a pioneer in both cardio-oncology and cardio-immunology, with his research focusing on how cutting-edge cancer therapies influence the cardiovascular system.
Prof Moslehi visited Australia in August to present at the CSANZ26 Annual Scientific Meeting. While in Sydney, he travelled to Newcastle, where the Newcastle Centre of Excellence in Cardio-Oncology was proud to host him.
During his visit, he presented his landmark work, “Cardio-Immunology: What Cancer Immunotherapies Have Taught Us About Cardiovascular Disease,” to fellow clinicians and researchers at the John Hunter Hospital.
His visit provided an invaluable opportunity for our clinical and research community to engage directly with one of the world’s leading voices in cardio-oncology, strengthening international collaboration and advancing shared understanding in this rapidly evolving field.
