COHEN INVITED TO PRESENT AT GREAT WALL INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF CARDIOLOGY SYMPOSIUM

(ROSELLE) - Assembly Deputy Speaker Neil M. Cohen, prime sponsor of the New Jersey Stem-Cell Research Law, has been invited to attend and present a lecture during the 17th Great Wall International Congress of Cardiology (GW-ICC) & American College of Cardiology (ACC) Symposium: Cardiology Update 2006.

The Assemblyman will address progress in stem-cell research relative to cardiac related treatments.

"It is an honor to be invited to present my thoughts on the benefits of stem-cell research before one of the premiere international symposiums in the field of cardiology," said Cohen (D-Union) one of the most vocal proponents of stem-cell research in the New Jersey Legislature. "It also will serve as a unique opportunity to compare notes with leaders in cutting-edge cardiac research from around the globe and gauge the international interest in the benefits of stem-cell research."

The GW-ICC Symposium has become one of the most influential scientific and educational events in China, with over 6,000 participants in recent years. The symposium focuses on the various advances in the field of cardiology from across the globe. This year also will feature a China-Japan Cardiovascular Forum, in collaboration with the Japanese Circulation Society.
