This re-occlusion of the vessel is caused by a contractile-to-synthetic phenotype switch that occurs in the smooth muscle cells that increases cellular proliferation, inflammation, and ECM synthesis. In these studies, we show that an MK2 inhibitory peptide effectively reduces intimal hyperplasia by blocking this phenotype switch and explore strategies for its use in preventing vessel failure after vein grafting and angioplasty.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Speaker #2:<\/strong> Zach Stoebner, MS Candidate, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science<\/p>\n<p><strong>RiP #2<\/strong>: Annotating Kidney Stones in Endoscopic Video Feeds with Deep Learning<\/p>\n<p><strong>RIP #2 Description:<\/strong> We are exploring supervised deep learning models to annotate kidney stones in surgical endoscopic video feeds.
