Dear Colleagues,
dear Friends of Haemostaseology,

Bienvenue à Lausanne!

On behalf of the GTH – the Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis Research – we are honoured to welcome you to the 69^th Annual Meeting, which will be held from 18–21 February 2025 in Lausanne, Switzerland.

ARTE – Under this acronym, the Congress will provide a lively scientific programme covering the latest insights into Advances, Research, Technology and Education in the field of Thrombosis and Haemostasis. This Italian acronym means “die Kunst”. During the Congress you will have a unique opportunity to experience how Art and Medicine interact, how Creativity can impact on our daily work as researchers and caregivers, and how the Art of fostering tomorrow’s haemostaseologists can be cultivated.

Your contribution – We are working to shape the best possible Meeting, inviting excellent Speakers, giving space and a special focus to the new generation of haemostaseologists, and creating a welcoming, redesigned Industrial Exhibition. However, the GTH 2025 will only become outstanding if you will submit your best scientific work to be presented and discussed during Oral Communications and Poster Sessions.

In the spirit of the GTH as the “scientific home” of the German, Austrian, and Swiss haemostaseologists opened towards European colleagues, we warmly invite you to actively participate in the GTH 2025 ARTE in Lausanne.
