Learning objectives

After watching this webinar, participants will understand: 

• the basic biology of RNA expression in plaques; and
• how different types of plaques are represented by gene expression. 

Needs assessment and expected educational outcome

To help clinicians and non-clinicians gain knowledge about the biology of plaque gene expression and how this represents the differences between plaque types and disease states.
