Welcome
Dear colleagues,
It is with great pleasure that I invite you to attend the 23rd Union Congress of the Swiss Vascular Societies (UVSS) organized by the Swiss Society of Angiology (SSA) together with the Swiss Society for Ultrasound in Medicine (SGUM) Vascular Section which will take place from November 15-17, 2023 in Beaulieu Lausanne.
This year’s main theme will be:
CARDIOVASCULAR PREVENTION: FROM EXERCISE TO DRUGS, INTERVENTION, AND BACK!
The conference program will also highlight plenary sessions combining the perspectives of all participating societies. There will also be workshops, thematic symposiums and sessions organized by young fellows. The first day is also designed to accommodate non-physicians and general practitioners or HTA society physicians with the NP workshops.
This year's congress will again be accompanied by a large exhibition where our industry partners will present their products. In addition, there will be the well-known Union Dinner taking place at a special location in Lausanne: the Olympic Museum. I hope to meet you there.
On behalf of the organizing committee, I would like to extend a warm welcome to you and look forward to seeing you November 15 -17 in Lausanne!
