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 contributes 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.

The International Study on the cost-effectiveness of Lp(a) testing shows that using Lp(a) to reclassify cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in the primary prevention population aged 40–69 years is a highly cost-effective way to prevent CVD.

Implementing Lp(a) testing is not only strongly justified from a clinical perspective, but is also likely to deliver a financial return on investment when considered from a societal perspective.

These results support the immediate implementation of Lp(a) testing in primary prevention populations in high-income countries.

Only 1-2% of the population has had an Lp(a) measurement and therefore most of those with elevated concentrations do not know about their increased levels. Remember that Lp(a) should be measured at least once in life to identify those with a high CV risk.

The discourse on Lp(a) among many stakeholders across the globe (medical societies, healthcare professionals, academics/researchers, patient organisations and life sciences industry) points to the urgent need to encourage a more systematic and structured approach to testing the population, following guidelines, to decrease the overall cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk / prevent CVD from high levels of Lp(a).

Recommendations and guidelines such as the EAS Lipoprotein(a) 2022 Consensus Statement underline that everyone should be tested once in a lifetime.

The new AtheroTalk episode is out! We were honored to host Prof. John J.P. Kastelein, one of the most influential figures in lipidology and cardiovascular prevention.

With a career spanning decades of groundbreaking research and innovation, Prof. Kastelein shares his personal journey and reflects on the evolution of lipid-lowering therapy — from the early days of statins to today’s rapidly expanding pipeline of novel therapeutics.

Together, we explore the milestones that have shaped modern cardiovascular prevention, the lessons learned along the way, and the exciting future of precision lipid management. This conversation offers unique insights into the intersection of science, clinical practice, and drug development, from someone who has been at the forefront of it all.
