Faculty Disclosures

Physician Faculty List & Disclosure Summary

It is the policy of the International Andreas Gruentzig Society (IAGS) to insure balance, independence, objectivity, and scientific rigor in all its sponsored educational programs. All speakers, chairpersons, panelists and planning committee members participating in this program are required to disclose to the program audience all relationships with Industry.

The intent of this policy is not to prevent a participant with an Industry Relationship from making a presentation. It is merely intended that all Industry Relationships should be identified openly so that the listeners may form their own judgments about the presentation with full disclosure of the facts. It remains for the audience to determine whether the participant’s Industry Relationships may reflect a possible bias in either the exposition or the conclusions presented.
