EAS National Society members

Persons who receive membership of EAS though agreement with their national atherosclerosis society are National Society members.

The EAS’ goal is to provide a framework for concerted scientific and clinical discussion of new developments in basic research, diagnosis and therapy of atherosclerosis. We see interaction with National Atherosclerosis and related Societies as an important part of this discussion, as we share many mutual interests and common goals. EAS has traditionally been a Society for Individual members – now we offer EAS-National Society Membership. Read more about how your society can subscribe and which benefits EAS-National Society members gain.
