1stVAS Laboratory for Vascular Medicine-Yearly upgrading on European and International Projects
2025 March 7-9, Hungary- Zsámbék (close to Budapest)
We aim to foster brainstorming and collaborative efforts to enhance the impact of Angiology/Vascular Medicine initiatives for individuals and society.
This event will be a fresh, creative in-person gathering, organized into exclusive Focused Tables, where new projects will be defined, and ongoing programs will be discussed and improved.
On the final day, there will be a collective discussion to review the outcomes of each table.
Our goal is to engage a small, dedicated group of genuinely interested participants, though others are welcome to join if they wish to actively contribute.
The event will be held annually in different countries. The draft program is open for suggestions. If you have any ideas or proposals, please share them with us and join us for this inaugural edition of the Laboratory.
The number of tables and the duration will be determined based on the final selection of key topics for the Reserved Tables (as outlined in the draft program and any subsequent updates).
