Saturday 10 – Tuesday 13 June 2017
Antwerp, Belgium
This course aims at delivering up-to-date knowledge on cardiogenetics to cardiologists, genetic counselors, clinical
and molecular geneticists in training or certified.
It creates the best opportunity for interaction and discussion with experts from all over Europe. The faculty
