Prof. Mafalda Bourbon shares the outcomes of the high-level event at the European Parliament. She notes the solidarity across our community - patients, clinicians, and scientists - along with the goodwill of the MEP Group, and underlines prevention priorities, including FH screening for children.

Prof. Børge Nordestgaard emphasized that patients must be at the centre of the upcoming EU CV Health Plan, and our society supports them with evidence. Yesterday, their voices were heard through short, emotional testimonies that humanised the stakes of missed or late diagnoses. We are proud of you!

EAS President Prof. Børge Nordestgaard will speak at the European Parliament on 25 September 2025, alongside Profs. Albert Wiegman and Florian Kronenberg, at a high-level meeting on advancing cardiovascular prevention, hosted by MEPs Romana Jerković and Tomislav Sokol.
