On the evening of September 19th, UK time, as part of Aortic Dissection Awareness Day 2025, we are thrilled to unveil the research projects selected for funding by our Research Advisory Group. This webinar offers a valuable opportunity for patients, families, and the medical community to learn more about the chosen projects and explore ways to get involved in advancing aortic dissection research.
Driving Progress Through Research and Innovation
The charity continues its mission to improve diagnosis, increase survival rates, and reduce the long-term impact of aortic dissection. Each year, we receive a diverse range of innovative and high-quality research proposals that reflect the growing commitment to tackling this critical condition. The successful projects, to be announced during this event, represent the cutting-edge of aortic dissection research and promise to drive significant progress.
Our keynote speaker, Professor Christoph Nienaber, Consultant Cardiologist at Royal Brompton Hospital, will deliver an inspiring address on the importance of ‘pump priming’ research. With a distinguished career focused on the diagnosis and non-surgical treatment of acute and chronic aortic pathologies, including aneurysms and aortic dissection, Professor Nienaber will highlight how early-stage funding supports the development of innovative ideas and essential preliminary data, laying the groundwork for future breakthroughs.
Your Role in Advancing Research
Community involvement is key to accelerating progress in aortic dissection research. Whether you are a patient, a family member, or a medical professional, your engagement is vital in shaping a future where early diagnosis and effective treatments can save lives and improve quality of life.
We invite you to join us to learn about the exciting developments in aortic dissection research, connect with others in the community, and discover how you can support these transformative efforts.
