INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY OF CARDIOLOGY MEMORIAL AWARDS
The International Academy of Cardiology has
established five awards to honor the memory of distinguished colleagues
who made a major contribution to Medicine and Cardiology and who were
members of the faculty for previous International
Academy of Cardiology meetings. As in
previous years, the recipients were selected by a very prestigious
Awards Committee. The awards for 2015 will be presented at the Opening
Ceremony of the Congress.
