Session Description: The acquisition of aberrant clonal cell populations within the bone marrow has been observed during aging. It is now becoming clear that such clonal hematopoiesis may play important roles in age-related diseases, particularly inflammatory and age-related diseases of the cardiovascular system such as atherosclerosis. This session will involve leaders in the field sharing their insights into this new and evolving area of disease-related research.
