We are pleased to invite you to attend Artery 10 which will be held from Sunday 17th to Tuesday 19th
October 2010 in Verona, Italy.
This conference will follow on from previous highly successful ARTERY meetings, which
have established a
tradition in the field. ARTERY 10 will cover an expanded list
of topics related to large artery structure and
function through keynote lectures,
abstract presentations and practical demonstrations.
The Artery Society aims to be the bridge between all societies dealing with arterial
structure, function and
physiology, fostering exchanges of ideas and novel research.
Delegates of these societies are warmly
invited to actively participate in ARTERY 10.
We welcome abstracts for both oral and poster presentations dealing with clinical
research, experimental
studies, epidemiology, biomechanical, methodological, and
genetic research related to large artery structure
and function. The presentation
of data at this meeting will provide the opportunity for scientific interaction
and discussion with a highly informed audience. The Society will provide prestigious
prizes for the best oral
presentation by a young investigator and best poster, together
with two Career Development Awards for
more established researchers. All accepted
abstracts will be published in the official journal of the Society –
ARTERY Research.
More information will appear on these pages shortly or if you would like to be added
to the mailing list to
receive information about ARTERY 10 email
artery@hamptonmedical.com.

Artery 10
will be held in Verona, Italy from Sunday 17th -
Tuesday 19th October 2010.
Located in the Veneto region in Northern Italy, Verona is only half an hour’s drive
from Lake Garda, one of the country’s most beautiful lakes. It is also surrounded,
to the north and east, by the hilly landscapes of the famous Valpolicella and Soave
wine districts. Verona, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has two faces: that of an
energetic artistic and cultural centre - it is the fourth art city in Italy after
Rome, Florence and Venice – and that of the capital of food and wine. Known by most
for its Roman amphiteatre, the Arena, one of Italy’s largest, Juliet’s balcony and
the home of its annual summer opera festival, Verona also boasts one of Italy’s
finest Romanesque churches as well as one of the country’s most beautiful Renaissance
gardens. The streets bordering the Adige river, the ancient palazzos, the churches,
exhibitions and the concerts all make meeting in Verona an occasion for enjoying
beauty and serenity.
CLIMATE
Whilst temperatures may vary from year to year, Verona tends to enjoy a
pleasant climate all year round. The spring and autumn are generally the best seasons
to visit Verona.
