Professor Marc Humbert is Director at the INSERM U999, Université Paris-Sud, and Vice Chairman of the National Reference Centre for Pulmonary Hypertension at the Department of Respiratory and Intensive Care Medicine, Hospital Antoine Béclère in Clamart, France.

Amongst other activities, he is also Chairman of the European Respiratory Society Group “Pulmonary Circulation and Vascular Diseases”, Editor of the European Respiratory Review, Associate Editor of the European Respiratory Journal, and Member of the Editorial Board of the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine.

He has published more than 200 peer-reviewed articles (including 290 in the last 10 years) in world top journals, including N Engl J Med, Lancet, Nature, Nature Med, J Clin Invest, J Exp Med, as well as in the top journals of respiratory and cardiovascular medicine (Am J Resp Respir Crit Care Med, J Am Coll Cardiol, Circulation, Circ Res, etc.).

 

In his guest talk, "Ectopic upregulation of Membrane-bound IL6R and Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling in PAH", Professor Humbert will talk about his current research:

 

The main scope of his present research activities relates to pulmonary hypertension pathophysiology and clinical management. Deciphering of the mechanisms of lung vascular remodeling and identification of novel molecular targets to alleviate and ultimately cure pulmonary hypertension is the main objective of his program. On the basis of a nationwide web-based Registry, a biobank, and highly competitive scientists, his group studies a number of molecular pathways causing pulmonary vascular remodeling in human and animal models of pulmonary hypertension, identifies targets for therapy, fosters drug development based on these targets and test novel treatments. His main goal is to alleviate and cure pulmonary hypertension, a large burden to mankind, and to develop novel therapies.
