Welcome to the European Society of Cardiology. Our mission: to reduce the burden of cardiovascular disease in Europe
 

Letter from the President - July 2011 

European Heart Rhythm Association

Date: 11 Jul 2011
   This newsletter comes after a very successful EHRA EUROPACE 2011 congress in Madrid filled with many important association events, and with a record-breaking 5,564 participants of which 1,247 are EHRA members!

In Madrid, the new EHRA Board was officially presented and began its activities. It is a great honour and privilege for me to take the position of President for our Association, and I have the distinguished pleasure to work with the new President-Elect, Prof. Karl-Heinz Kuck and the past-President Prof. Panos Vardas, as well as with Prof Luis Mont (Secretary) and  Prof. Christian Wolpert (Treasurer).

First of all I would like to thank our Past-president and the President-elect of European Society of Cardiology, Prof. Panos Vardas, and all past EHRA board and committee members for their tremendous efforts,  dedication and passion to establish EHRA as the leading European scientific association in arrhythmology.

I invite you to discover the names of our new EHRA Committee chairs, and I wish to thank all them for having accepted my invitation to serve EHRA to further pursue its mission.

Best regards,
Professor Angelo Auricchio, President of EHRA
