Welcome to the PCSK9 Education and Research Forum


On behalf of the Executive Editorial Board and our Editorial Advisory Board we would like to thank you for becoming a member of this new initiative in the prevention of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease, the PCSK9 Education and Research Forum.

We are delighted that you have joined us and colleagues around the world in fostering education and research focussed on the importance of PCSK9 in lipid and cholesterol metabolism as well as its value as a novel therapeutic target.


Significant resources already available

On our website you will already find a wide spectrum of valuable resources including educational programmes, reviews, videos and slides incorporating the latest research.  These resources are being continuously updated as new information becomes available.

We look forward to sharing these programmes with you and receiving your feedback.


Your contribution to the Forum is welcome

One of the Forum’s key objectives is to promote the sharing of information and ideas. Therefore, we hope that you will also contribute by submitting resources, articles and information for publication on the site.

Please send any contributions and feedback to the Secretariat who will circulate it to the editors.


Please invite colleagues to join us

We would also like to ask you to invite colleagues who are interested in this rapidly emerging field of research to join the Forum.

As you know membership is free and registration is easy on the PCSK9 Forum website.

Thank you again for joining the Forum which we hope will make a valuable and important contribution to this exciting new area of cardiovascular research.

With best regards
