The EAPC is celebrating its 20-year anniversary in 2024, which for me makes my role as 2024-2026 EAPC President even more meaningful. The accomplishments of our association have impacted preventive cardiology worldwide and I consider it a privilege to have been entrusted with leading our efforts in prevention over the next two years.
My vision is focused on five areas:
- Implementation of ESC Guidelines; the optimal management of risk factors
- Education: strengthening the EAPC educational offer
- Communication: development of skills training for Health Care Professionals
- Innovation: validation of SCORE2 outside Europe; increasing our social media footprint
- Connection with international societies for professionals in our field
If you are enthusiastic about Preventive Cardiology, I actively invite you to join our community and participate in our activities: submitting abstracts to our congress, attending our courses, taking the Certification exam, participating in webinars.
I look forward to meeting you in Milan next April for ESC Preventive Cardiology 2025!

EAPC President 2024-2026
