About us
Management and structure
The Aortic Association is an independent scientific platform focusing on continuing medical education in aortic medicine, on advancing the standard of the therapy of aortic diseases of today and on providing a think tank for treatment strategies of tomorrow.
The Statutes provide a clear separation between strategic and scientific functions on the one hand, and executive, operational and administrative functions on the other. The Board is the executive and legislative body, the General Assembly is the operational body, and the General Secretary is the administrative body of the Aortic Association.
