Aortic Dissection Awareness Day UK 2025 - Leicester
Hosting of the 10th annual Aortic Dissection Awareness Day UK, on Thursday 18th September 2025, is awarded by the national patient charity to the University of Leicester.
Event Details
The award, accepted by Prof. Gavin Murphy, BHF Chair of Cardiac Surgery at the university, recognises the excellent progress being made in the NIHR-funded DECIDE-TAD national research partnership between the university and Aortic Dissection Awareness UK & Ireland. The programme is researching the potential of increased family screening in Thoracic Aortic Disease as a means of preventing future Aortic Dissections. Aortic Dissection Awareness Day UK 2025, generously sponsored by Terumo Aortic, will take as its theme the national patient charity's THINK AORTA, THINK FAMILY campaign message and will focus on actively engaging delegates in the research being undertaken by the DECIDE-TAD programme.
We expect up to 150 patients, relatives, clinicians and researchers with an interest in the DECIDE-TAD programme to attend this unique national event. Registration opens on 1st March and we expect the event to be fully subscribed. If you are a patient, relative or carer affected by Aortic Dissection or a clinician who treats Aortic Dissection patients and you would like to join us, please click the Book Now link to get your ticket.
