Every even year , the ESC Working Group on Atherosclerosis and Vascular Biology organises a one day symposium to gathers top level international speakers in the Working Group field.
Held one day prior to the Frontiers in CardioVascular Biology (FCVB) Congress, the symposium provides to young scientists an overview of current research in atherosclerosis and vascular biology at experimental and clinical level. It is also the entry point to FCVB, the official Congress of the Council on Basic Cardiovascular Science, which is one of the most relevant exchange platforms for basic and translational cardiovascular biology.
At the end of the symposium and thanks to the hard work on the scientific content, the Working Group nucleus and the symposium speakers meet to form the basis of a Position Paper.
