EAS 2019, 87th European Atherosclerosis Society Congress

Abstract submission deadline is extended until Dec 11, 2018

Dear Friends & Colleagues,

On behalf of the European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS) and the Dutch Atherosclerosis Society we invite you to the Netherlands, to the charming and historic city of Maastricht and the 87th EAS Congress. During the meeting we will explore the latest developments in research into the causes of atherosclerosis and related vascular disease, and how these may affect the clinical guidelines for diagnosis and treatment. Clinicians and basic researchers studying atherosclerosis and related vascular disease are welcome to submit an abstract, to present their findings to the international scientific community at EAS 2019.

Join us in Maastricht, and hear leading experts in the award-winning Anitschkow Lecture, Keynote Lectures, Plenary Sessions, Workshops and Advance Clinical Seminars. Come and ask questions and share your own ideas during the Science at a Glance and Poster Sessions. We particularly welcome early-career scientists to take part in the Congress, present their own research, and get to know others in the field. See the Society website for how to apply for Young Investigator Fellowships.

Compact and vibrant, Maastricht is a great networking city. Join us there 26-29 May at EAS 2019! You are sure to gain new friends, new ideas, and inspiration to take your studies of atherosclerosis and related vascular disease to new levels!

Lale Tokgözoglu (EAS President), Erik Biessen (Congress Chair), Erik Stroes (Congress Chair), Alberico L. Catapano (Chair, Scientific Programme Committee)
