2026 Spring School in Arterial Hypertension
INTERNATIONAL PhD PROGRAM in ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION and VASCULAR BIOLOGY (ARHYVAB)
A Joint PhD Program with the University of Rome Sapienza
Coordinator: Teresa M. Seccia
April 20-23 Trento
The 5th edition of the Spring School within the International PhD Program in Arterial
Hypertension and Vascular Biology (ARHYVAB) of the University of Padua, a Joint PhD
Program with the University of Rome Sapienza, will take place in Trento (Italy) from April 20 to
April 23.
The School is open to anyone interested in gaining a deeper insight into the pathophysiology
and treatment of arterial hypertension. The program will feature internationally renowned
speakers who will discuss innovative and translational aspects of hypertension research in a
truly international and interdisciplinary environment.
This initiative reflects the strong commitment of the University of Padua to internationalization,
a core value deeply rooted in its more than 800-year history and embodied in the motto
Universa Universis Patavina Libertas. Participation of ARHYVAB PhD students in the EU-
funded EU MSCA-COFUND (UNIPhD) Program further testifies to the international nature of
the PhD.
This year, to facilitate interaction among participants, the program will include more free time
for networking and several activities beyond traditional talks.
