These ties with academic societies, universities, and partners have been forged to facilitate the sharing of complementary educational materials for the benefit of the international medical community and the lay public.
The International Atherosclerosis Society (IAS), incorporated in 1979, promotes, at an international level, the advancement of science, research, and teaching in the field of atherosclerosis. The IAS endeavors to achieve these objectives by promoting the exchange of existing knowledge; encouraging new research ventures and interdisciplinary approaches; establishing visiting fellowships for young investigators; fostering the dissemination of knowledge by organizing international symposia, workshops, courses, and meetings; and through the association with a scientific journal. Membership is open to active researchers who join one of the 58 IAS national or regional constituent societies or who join as individual members from countries without national affiliated society.
