Within this network, we are actively involved in the VASCA Working Group. This year, Lex van der Heijden represented the VASCA WG and gave a presentation about the activities and work of the group. Lex also highlighted the psychological and psychosocial aspects of living with a rare condition in general.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Our CMTC-OVM organisation served as a practical example of the added value a patient organisation can provide to people living with a rare condition, their families, and healthcare professionals. This was illustrated by our Cloverleaf Model, with a banner showcasing several examples of the support and benefits we offer.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Lex had brought a large supply of traditional Dutch stroopwafels, which disappeared at an impressive speed!<\/p>\n<p>The VASCERN Summer School 2026 ended with an onsite week in Paris this September, gathering medical students, residents, and post-doctoral researchers from across Europe for six days of teaching on rare vascular diseases. The programme, an Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme, follows <a href=\"https:\/\/vascern.eu\/news\/vascern-summer-school-2026-launches-online-module\/\">fifteen weeks of online study<\/a>, with the Paris week serving as its practical and clinical centrepiece.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>From Genetics to Clinical Practice<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Over the six days, students worked through six disease areas: Heritable Thoracic Aortic Diseases, Medium Sized Arteries conditions, Neurovascular diseases, Paediatric and Primary Lymphoedema, Vascular Anomalies, and Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia. Each course followed a similar rhythm starting with underlying biology, genetics, pathophysiology, and diagnostic criteria, before moving into treatment and management.<\/p>\n<p>This week opened with <a href=\"https:\/\/vascern.eu\/group\/heritable-thoracic-aortic-diseases-2\/\">Heritable Thoracic Aortic Diseases<\/a>, taught by Prof. Laura Mui\u00f1o Mosquera, Prof. Guillaume Jondeau, and Dr. Anna Sabat\u00e9-Rot\u00e9s, and closed with students bringing their own clinical cases to the group for discussion.<\/p>\n<p>That pattern, teaching followed by application, repeated across the week. <a href=\"https:\/\/vascern.eu\/group\/medium-sized-arteries-2\/\">Medium Sized Arteries conditions<\/a> came next, with Prof. Laura Mui\u00f1o Mosquera, Prof. Tristan Mirault, and Dr. Michael Frank taking students from vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome genetics to the realities of arterial dissection management.<\/p>\n<p>Day two and three covered <a href=\"https:\/\/vascern.eu\/group\/neurovascular-diseases-neurovasc-wg\/\">Neurovascular diseases<\/a> spanning CADASIL with Dr. Gido Gravesteijn and Dr. St\u00e9phanie Guey, then Moyamoya angiopathy with Dr. Nicola Rifino and Dr. Dominique Herv\u00e9, and closing with a student case presentation of their own.<\/p>\n<p>Day three covered <a href=\"https:\/\/vascern.eu\/group\/pediatric-and-primary-lymphedema\/\">Paediatric and Primary Lymphoedema<\/a>, led by Dr. Vaughan Keeley and Prof. Sarah Thomis, paired clinical teaching with two hands-on workshops, building genealogic trees and practising compression bandaging techniques directly.<\/p>\n<p>Day four was one of the busiest single day of the week, covering six distinct <a href=\"https:\/\/vascern.eu\/group\/vascular-anomalies\/\">vascular malformation<\/a> types with Dr. Annouk Bisdorff, Dr. Andrea Diociaiuti, Dr. Bitten Sch\u00f6newolf-Greulich, Dr. Nader Ghaffarpour, and Dr. Olivia Boccara, woven throughout with short patient films.<\/p>\n<p>Day five covered <a href=\"https:\/\/vascern.eu\/group\/hereditary-haemorrhagic-telangiectasia\/\">Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia<\/a> closing the clinical programme, and opening with a patient\u2019s story before any teaching began, then moving through nosebleeds, organ involvement, and treatment with Prof. Urban Geisthoff, Dr. Sophie Dupuis-Girod, and Dr. Antonio Cerrone.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Learning Directly from Patients<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-78096 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cmtc.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Lex-presenting-summer-school-2026-web-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cmtc.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Lex-presenting-summer-school-2026-web-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.cmtc.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Lex-presenting-summer-school-2026-web.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/>Every course included a session with a <a href=\"https:\/\/vascern.eu\/network\/patient-representation\/european-patient-advocacy-group-epag\/\">VASCERN ePAG<\/a> patient advocate, and these were, without exception, the moments students spoke about most.<\/p>\n<p>Lida Korpela spoke about living with Marfan syndrome and HTAD, describing a life that \u201ctakes so much energy and time.\u201d Alessandra Veronese talked about her son\u2019s diagnosis, calling it both a relief and a new reality, and the \u201cnever ending search for support\u201d that followed. Elisabeth Lisack shared what it means to live with CADASIL, and the guilt, fear, and anxiety that ripple through a whole family.<\/p>\n<p>Carina Mainka spoke about caring for her son, who has a KIF11 gene variant, and her family\u2019s choice not to let it define their life.<\/p>\n<p>Lex Van Der Heijden and G\u00f6ran Westerlund brought their own perspectives on Vascular Anomalies and HHT respectively, each reinforcing the same point: a diagnosis is never only clinical.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Final Day<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The final day, Saturday, moved away from lectures entirely.
