Upcoming lecturers include Drs Richard Heitmiller, Lawrence Cohn, Hendrick Earner, Tirone David, Alexander Geha, and Alain Carpentier on their respective clinical areas of expertise. The goal of CTSNet Grand Rounds is to bring the knowledge and experience of recognized leaders in the
field to cardiothoracic surgeons around the globe.
