A congress focused on the next generation

Alongside Dr. Marc Rodger, also a Professor in the Department of Medicine at McGill University and co-chair of the congress, Dr. Susan Kahn was delighted to be able to offer young researchers opportunities for exchange with senior professionals in the field. “The congress was a great opportunity for them to present their work and get immediate feedback.” The central theme of the congress was to support and encourage young talent in the field of scientific research.

Over five days, numerous research results were presented, as well as new technologies enabling a better understanding of certain blood and vascular pathologies. A promising omen for the advancement of medical practices and the well-being of patients.

Next year’s congress will be held in Bangkok, the capital of Thailand.
