Over the past few days, we were inspired by a series of outstanding presentations showcasing the latest advances in both basic and clinical research on aortic diseases. In addition to insightful keynote talks, we were especially impressed by the creativity and scientific quality of our emerging researchers, who presented their work during the poster sessions.
