Testimonial from the Winner of the Young Investigators Award (YIA) in 2024

"I am truly honored to have received the “Young Investigator Award" at the ESC Acute CardioVascular Care Congress 2024.

The abstract writing process was both challenging and fulfilling, and as it often is, it was my first attempt to communicate the results.

Presenting at the congress allowed me to engage with a knowledgeable audience and foster insightful discussions with leading experts in the field. 

Science is a dynamic process: sharing and discussing early results is a crucial part of that journey.

Engaging with experts at the congress provided me with a unique opportunity for learning and growth.

I chose to submit to the ESC Acute CardioVascular Care Congress because it offered a well-organized, safe yet challenging setting for such exchanges. I encourage all healthcare professionals at all levels to consider submitting an abstract."
