Jörg Vollmar Lecture

The Jörg Vollmar Lecture promotes the delivery of a scientific lecture in the field of vascular medicine and science communication in Baden-Württemberg. As a sponsorship measure, the Jörg Vollmar Foundation supports educational institutions, non-profit, and public organizations in organizing and conducting this high-profile event. The funding is aimed at research institutions, medical professional societies, as well as organizers of scientific lecture series who wish to strengthen the dialogue between vascular surgery and the professional public. In line with the foundation’s purpose, this honors the historical pioneering work of Prof. Dr. Jörg F. Vollmar and integrates it into today’s research tradition.

The funding program aims to clearly convey the latest findings in vascular medicine and to intensify interaction between experts, early-career researchers, and interested parties. This lecture specifically promotes science communication to make innovations more visible and to network across disciplinary boundaries. Through the sponsorship focus, not only are technical and logistical aspects of the event covered, but sustainable impulses for the further development of vascular surgical methods are also set. Interested organizers will find in the Jörg Vollmar Lecture an established platform to attract renowned speakers for professional exchange and to draw regional as well as supraregional attention to advances in vascular medicine.
