European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS) & Congress

European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS) & Congress For more than 50 years the Society’s expertise has been used to teach clinicians how to manage lipid disorders and how to prevent atherosclerosis.

The European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS) was founded in 1964 with the aim of “advancing and exchanging knowledge concerning the causes, natural history, treatment and prevention of atherosclerotic disease”. By offering to our members access to educational materials, and opportunities to take part in Congress and courses, and by providing a forum in which new developments can be discussed, EAS co

ntributes to the development of knowledge in the field, and ultimately to the improved treatment of persons with cardiovascular disease and lipid disorders. In recent years the Society has made a particular effort to recruit young scientists and clinicians also from other related disciplines. What we do
The European Atherosclerosis Society’s goal is to provide a framework for concerted scientific and clinical discussion of new developments in basic research, diagnosis and therapy of atherosclerosis. EAS is active in the publication of Guidelines and Consensus Position Papers, and its official Journal is Atherosclerosis. Through a regular series of Featured Commentaries EAS puts into perspective topical issues of relevance to our members. The Society organizes an annual Congress for approximately 2000 delegates, and runs a programme of Advanced Courses for both basic scientists and clinicians. EAS Academy is the Society's online e-Learning resource, containing a range of educational material and self-teaching programmes.

In this episode of AtheroTalk, we are privileged to welcome Prof. Heribert Schunkert, recipient of the 2026 EAS Anitschkow Prize.

By listening to Prof. Schunkert’s inspiring academic journey and thought-provoking insights regarding the future of cardiovascular disease management, this discussion makes us wonder about how we can include polygenic risk scores in daily clinical practice, how we can improve the care of our patients with familial hypercholesterolemia and about how we can overcome the biggest challenges in cardiometabolic medicine.

The Rare Lipid Disorders Course is coming to Italy! 🇮🇹

Join us in Rome to learn more about rare genetic disorders of lipid metabolism, including β-sitosterolemia, cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, lysosomal acid lipase deficiency, disorders of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and familial hypocholesterolemias.

The second event of our CME-accredited series explores the evolving role of imaging and emerging clinical evidence in cardiovascular primary prevention.

Participants will learn how imaging techniques complement SCORE2 and SCORE2-OP risk assessment by improving risk stratification and evaluating atherosclerotic plaque, particularly in individuals at very high cardiovascular risk. The programme will also highlight key findings from recent LDL-C–lowering trials, including VESALIUS, V1P, CORAL-Reef, and ACCLAIM, and discuss their implications for future clinical practice.

The global burden of obesity-related metabolic disease is rising rapidly, driving interconnected cardiovascular, liver, kidney, and metabolic complications.

In this Featured Open Lecture, Prof. Kausik K. Ray and Stefano Romeo explore the European Atherosclerosis Society’s new framework for understanding systemic metabolic disease - a multi-organ continuum linking dysfunctional adiposity, insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia, liver and kidney disease, heart failure, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Together, they discuss the clinical importance, underlying mechanisms, and how a more integrated approach could transform prevention, treatment, and future research: https://eas.to/OpenSep26

What have we learned from the Palisade Study, where will it lead future research?

Join our webinar that will examine how the PALISADE study was designed, conducted and interpreted, alongside a review of plozasiran’s mechanism of action and the role of ApoC-III reduction in triglyceride metabolism. Looking ahead, the session will also explore the future potential of siRNA therapies in hypertriglyceridaemia and related lipid disorders, and consider how plozasiran may be incorporated into clinical practice through real-world patient case discussions.

The European Atherosclerosis Society was proud to contribute to the success of VAS 2026 in Ninh Binh, Vietnam.

Represented by Prof. Børge Nordestgaard, EAS played a key role in the VAS–EAS–IAS–APSAVD Joint Session, strengthening international scientific exchange and collaboration in atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.

A great example of EAS’s commitment to advancing knowledge and building global partnerships.
