 EuroIntervention Session: EuroPCR initiativeProf. P.W. Serruys

The EuroIntervention Sessions at EuroPCR will be chaired by Professor Patrick W. Serruys, editor-in-chief of EIJ. Accompanied by a distinguished panel of experts, the chosen authors will have the opportunity to present their articles in this prestigious public forum which will become an integral part of the Course experience.

These sessions participate in the overall EuroPCR educational objectives, where the communication of ideas is paramount. The participants will see their presentation covered in all integrated communications of the Course itself: from the EuroPCR Daily newspaper and in-house TV, to the entire family of EuroPCR websites including our own EuroIntervention website.
