EACTS to me has always represented the path to innovation, the means for connecting minds, the perfect networking field, and the tool to broaden our horizons. Beside congenital cardiac surgery, my other area of interest is Medical Education, which I translated into the completion of a higher degree and the foundation of a national teaching society. Having lived and trained in three different countries, I have been able to enrich my professional and private life with the many cultures I have encountered on my path. This is EACTS: being part of a community with a bigger purpose.
