Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to participate in the 27th Annual Meeting of the European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery which will be held in Vienna, Austria, from Saturday 5 to Wednesday 9 October 2013
The EACTS Annual Meeting is the largest cardio-thoracic meeting in the world, a position it has maintained for over a decade. The event regularly attracts in excess of 5000 participants, 4000 of whom are registered physicians.
Our scientific programme will focus on scientific developments and research over our four main specialties: Acquired Cardiac Disease, Congenital Heart Disease, Vascular Disease and Thoracic Disease. The theme for the 27th Annual Meeting will be "Optimizing training for better patient outcome." The core programme, which will include our Techno-College, Postgraduate Courses, keynote lectures and abstract sessions, will once again be complemented by an innovative programme of focus and professional challenge sessions, workshops, wetlabs and discussion panels.
An exciting trade exhibition and satellite symposia programme will offer our Industry partners the opportunity to showcase their next generation of technology solutions.
We look forward to seeing you in Vienna.
