Dr. Busija earned his Ph.D. from the University of Kansas and completed his post-doctoral training at the Cardiovascular Center at the University of Iowa.
The purpose of the Gulf Coast Physiology Society Meeting is to foster collaborative interactions related to research and education, and to develop and nurture greater interest in the physiological sciences among faculty, students, and postdoctoral fellows in the Gulf Coast region. The meeting is also intended to showcase the trainees and early career investigators who conduct physiological research in the Gulf Coast Region.
