ESC Working Group on Atherosclerosis & Vascular Biology
Guided by our mission to deepen understanding and improve care, we advance diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of atherosclerosis by connecting scientists and accelerating therapies that benefit patients
Who we are
Bridging Science and Therapy in Vascular Health
We’re advancing the understanding, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of atherosclerosis by focusing on what drives it at the core – vascular biology.
As the leading cause of cardiovascular disease worldwide, atherosclerosis demands bold thinking and fresh approaches. That’s why we’re bringing together researchers and clinicians to develop new tools, share discoveries, and collaborate across disciplines. Together, we’re working to reduce its global impact and bring better care to more patients.
