Baltic Atherosclerosis Society Conference - Tallinn 2020

Dear Colleagues,

The organisers of the BAS 2020 would like to thank our delegates, sponsors and speakers for their support for the conference. More than 400 delegates attended from 16 countries. As the burden of the cardiovascular morbidity and mortality remains very high in all the three Baltic countries, the conference gained a spectacular media coverage.

Dear Colleagues,

It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate at the Baltic Atherosclerosis Conference, which will take place in brand new hotel L'Embitu in Tallinn city centre on December 04, 2020.
The programme of the Congress should help practitioners to find answers to the questions they are facing in their daily work. Our activities are focused on clinically oriented primary and secondary prevention. The programme will tackle all the major risk factors and mechanisms of atherosclerosis as usually, with special emphasis on lipid management in secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease, familial dyslipidemias such as familial hypercholesterolemia and cardiovascular risk in diabetes.
Despite the recent advances in the cardiovascular prevention and atherosclerosis research, the burden of the cardiovascular morbidity and mortality remains very high in all the three Baltic countries. This will give the opportunity to bring together state-of-art research in the field of atherosclerosis and create strong forum for exchanging ideas and seeking solutions for the future.

This time we organize hybrid event with possibility to gather in Tallinn. For registered delegates, who can not gather on-site, we will open virtual window to follow conference live stream and invite them to participate via interactive app with Q/A sessions and networking possibility. All delegates have possibility to interact with conference exhibitors via special conference expo-room, learn about their new products and technical solutions.

Virtual (on-line) participation at BAS 2020 is free for pre-registered delegates (medical specialists, doctors, nurses and residents). A small fee is charged from on-site participants to cover some of the costs of our event. We look forward to great interest in the atherosclerosis prevention in general and the work of Baltic Atherosclerosis Society in particular.

The main venue (and virtual studio) of BAS 2020 conference is a brand new hotel L'Embitu in Tallinn. We hope that the unique conference centre on the top floor of the hotel and restaurant Roof with panoramic view over Tallinn will create pleasant and memorable atmosphere for scientific content. Latvian and Lithuanian delegates are invited to follow live stream. In order to plan the number of virtual participants we kindly ask everyone to register now.

Please join us for a high level scientific experience!
