President’s Message

Prof. Peter Libby

President of the International Atherosclerosis Society

Among IAS’ goals is collaboration with other societies and stakeholders to foster research and education on cardio-cerebro-metabolic and thrombosis risk factors. To this end, IAS is engaged as a global scientific partner of INTERASPIRE. INTERASPIRE is an international study of more than 4,000 coronary patients across 14 countries. It aims to:

Describe prevalence of cardiometabolic and renal risk factors
Describe current risk factor management to defined targets by drug therapies

Provide an objective assessment of clinical implementation of international and national cardiovascular guidelines
Investigate the reasons for variation in preventive cardiology practice between regions and countries
Promote the principles of best preventive cardiology practice through continental and national societies of cardiology and heart foundations.
