INVITATION
Dear colleagues and esteemed participants of the MUNICH VASCULAR CONFERENCE (MAC),
It is a great pleasure and privilege to invite you to the 15th MUNICH VASCULAR CONFERENCE (MAC), which will take place as an in-person symposium on December 10–11, 2026, at the University Hospital of the Technical University of Munich (TUM). Building on the success of our previous meetings, which brought together outstanding experts from around the world, this conference remains a premier event in the field of vascular medicine—promoting a dynamic exchange between clinicians and researchers from both translational and basic vascular science.
The MAC continues its strong tradition as a vibrant forum for open discussion and scientific dialogue. This year’s program will once again cover the full spectrum of vascular diseases, offering invaluable insights for clinicians and investigators alike. As a participant, you can expect world-class presentations from leading authorities on arterial and venous disorders, as well as cutting-edge developments in artificial intelligence and digital vascular medicine. Our core topics will include the latest advances in endovascular and open surgical techniques and the optimization of medical management for our patients.
Following the excellent feedback from previous editions, we are especially keen to welcome younger physicians and researchers to this year’s symposium. Your enthusiasm and innovative thinking are essential for shaping the future of vascular medicine and enriching our scientific community at the Klinikum rechts der Isar.
Details regarding the conference program and specific session highlights will be announced here shortly. We encourage you to check back regularly as we continue to update this site with the latest news and developments. The 15th MAC will again feature an exceptional faculty, ensuring an engaging and high-quality scientific experience for every attendee.
I look forward to personally welcoming you to Munich in December 2026. The city, especially in the weeks before Christmas, offers a wonderful atmosphere—an inspiring backdrop for professional exchange and collegial connection. I warmly encourage you to join us and perhaps even enjoy Munich’s festive charm with your colleagues or family.
Your participation is what makes the MUNICH VASCULAR CONFERENCE a success—I look forward to seeing you there.
Sincerely,
Univ.-Prof. Dr. Dr. med. Daniela Branzan
