Aarhus, Denmark, 24-27 April 2023

It is with great pleasure that we invite you to the biannual meeting of the European Society for Microcirculation in Aarhus, 24-27 April 2023.
The importance of the microcirculation is continually being highlighted and is receiving more attention due to the key role of small vessels in many pathological conditions than was appreciated a few years back. Examples of these conditions are impaired cognitive function and some forms of ischemic heart disease especially in women. In addition, the microcirculation is important for many other conditions, where new information is constantly being made available. We feel, therefore, that microcirculation research will receive increased recognition in the coming years.
The organizing committee is making every effort to arrange a great meeting with quality presentations, ample time for discussion and professional and social interactions.
Come and be inspired by colleagues studying microcirculation from many different perspectives in Aarhus in 2023!
More details including the preliminary programme, registration and abstract submission details (deadline 15^th January 2023)  can be found on the conference webpage: https://conferences.au.dk/esm

Awards available associated with the Congress.

We hope to meet you all in Aarhus!
Best wishes ESM Meeting Organising Team

Vascular Biology Summer School 2022

Full program

June 13-15, 2022; Online

The registration for the ESM/EVBO online Vascular Biology Summer School - June 13-15, 2022 - is now open.

Aim: to provide postgraduate students/junior postdoctoral scientists an opportunity to gain insight into the key questions and cutting-edge methodologies in vascular biology, to discuss with peers and experts in the field, and to train in the presentation and discussion of data. Applications from PhD/MD students and junior postdocs will be considered.

Short presentations by experts in the field will be followed by “how to?” Q&A sessions. Participants will join three panel discussions and have the opportunity to discuss and present your research. There will be awards for best presentations. For more information, the preliminary program is detailed in the attachment and on-line at www.esmicro.eu and evbo.org/summer-school-2.

The summer school is free for ESM and EVBO members; if you are not a member then please sign up for membership to ESM (Student Members €10 for two years) or EVBO (Student Members €30/annum or €80 for 3 years).

Junior post-doctoral position in Nantes, France

Two-year fixed-term contract
Signaling in Oncogenesis, Angiogenesis and Permeability,
Cancer & Immunology Research Center, INSERM, CNRS, Nantes University

The “Signaling in Oncogenesis, Angiogenesis and Permeability” (SOAP) team is interested in deciphering how tumor cells pirate basic signaling pathways to sustain their survival and unlimited proliferation, as well as the way in which they interact within their environment. Fundamental signaling mechanisms are explored with a specific emphasis on deleterious remodeling of the vascular network associated to tumor.
