DAY 1: WEDNESDAY, MAY 12, 2021
9:45 AM - 10:45 AM CT
WHS SESSION 1: Mechanobiology of Wound Healing
Skin is constantly exposed to mechanical forces. Wounding significantly alters this environment leading to a disruption in mechanical homeostasis and alterations in mechanotransduction. These mechanical cues not only alter cellular function but also alter extracellular matrix stiffness and organization and are powerful mediators of both normal and abnormal healing. This session will explore how the mechanical environment controls wound healing from inflammation to remodeling and will discuss recent advances in therapies aimed at controlling the mechanical environment of healing wounds.

WHS SESSION 8: Wound Healing Foundation Thomas K. Hunt Lecturer
The Thomas K. Hunt Endowed Lecture was established in 2013 to honor the legacy of Dr. Hunt who is a leader in wound healing research and a founding member of the Wound Healing Society. The purpose of this lecture is to inspire and educate wound healing researchers on related research innovations. Every year an honorary speaker is chosen by the Wound Healing Foundation and not limited to those who are directly involved in wound healing research but includes investigators who demonstrate the ability to bridge scientific gaps and cross boundaries through the use of basic physiology to understand healing processes in multiple organ systems. Noble prize recipient Dr Schekman will discuss how many cells secrete small extracellular vesicles (EVs) or exosomes. The EVs may carry proteins and RNA to target cells to change the pattern of gene expression or disease. His lab has found EVs isolated from fibroblasts or keratinocytes stimulate the migration of cells in a wound healing assay. By understanding the EV process, vesicles may be used to deliver therapeutic molecules for improved skin wound healing.

WHS SESSION 10: Cancer and Chronic Wounds
The relationship between wound healing and cancer has long been recognized. The mechanisms that regulate wound healing have been shown to promote transformation and growth of malignant cells. In addition, chronic inflammation has been associated with malignant transformation in many tissues. This session will explore how similarities and differences between healing wounds and tumor stroma continue to evolve, shedding light on possible therapeutic targets that can result in innovative treatments for wound healing and/or cancer.

WHS SESSION 12: Neuroinflammation
Wound healing is a significant challenge for systems biologists, as the injury is targeted to the local tissue, but the response to this injury elicits a systemic response. In addition to the trafficking of inflammatory (and anti-inflammatory cells) to the wound bed, the central and peripheral nervous systems (CNS and PNS) can participate in the repair and regenerative response. This session will review the mechanisms of nervous system involvement in injury, current concepts governing the efferent and afferent pathways affected by wounding, and the role played by neuro-inflammation.

WHS SESSION 13: Wound Pathogens and the Microbiome
Microbes are known to impair healing and can cause infection and additional complication. The pathophysiological nature of these microbial communities and their roles in modulating the immunological and local wound milieu responses are being targeted for improved wound care practices. These presentations will highlight several advances in our current understanding of microbial communities and their interactions, wound pathogens, antimicrobial resistance and ongoing efforts to translate basic research findings to clinical wound care.

WHS SESSION 14: Immunomodulatory Strategies for Wound Healing and Repair
All biomaterials elicit an immune response when implanted. While this response has historically been considered deleterious to wound healing, novel biomaterials have been developed to trigger desired tissue responses including angiogenesis and recruitment of pro-remodeling macrophages. This session will focus on recent advances in immunomodulatory biomaterials for enhanced wound repair.
