Practical guides
Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials
Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.
Flights
Destination: BER
December 2026 fares to BER were still loading during capture, though Google Flights flagged prices as typical for the London, Dubai, New York, Tokyo and Sydney routes searched. Book 6-10 weeks ahead for early-December congress travel and allow a buffer for winter weather delays at northern European hubs. Compare BER with rail connections from other German cities if you are already in Europe.
Transport
Get to the venue and around the city with these options.
Airport → venue: Primary gateways: Berlin Brandenburg (BER). Allow road or rail time to The Post House Berlin Potsdamer Platz; on-site parking is usually available at major exhibition venues.
Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near The Post House Berlin Potsdamer Platz: Potsdamer Platz: Novotel Suites Berlin City Potsdamer Platz; Potsdamer Platz: ibis budget Berlin City Potsdamer Platz; Potsdamer Platz: B&B Hotel Berlin-Potsdamer Platz.
Ride-hail: Uber, Bolt and FREE NOW operate in Berlin. At Berlin Brandenburg Airport, follow signs to the designated ride-hailing pickup area rather than the taxi rank. Fares are dynamic, so check the app estimate before booking and confirm the vehicle details. For the short trip between Potsdamer Platz hotels and The Post House, walking is usually easier than a ride-hailing trip.
Public transit: Berlin's BVG and VBB network connects BER with the city by FEX, regional trains and S-Bahn. For Potsdamer Platz, use S-Bahn lines S1, S2, S25 or S26, or the U2 U-Bahn, and allow 45-60 minutes from the airport including a walk. Buy an ABC ticket for airport travel and an AB ticket for central Berlin trips, and validate it before boarding.
Parking: Parking at The Post House is limited. Use commercial garages around Potsdamer Platz and check daily rates, height restrictions and pre-booking options. For a December congress, arrive early if driving, allow for winter road conditions and keep public transit as a backup.

FAQs & glossary
Answers
Frequently asked
Glossary
- LDL-C
- Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, the primary lipid target in most cardiovascular prevention guidelines and a central topic for Lipids 2026 sessions.
- HDL-C
- High-density lipoprotein cholesterol, a biomarker discussed in risk assessment and lipoprotein metabolism research.
- Triglycerides
- Circulating fats linked to remnant cholesterol, pancreatitis risk and cardiometabolic disease; a core theme in dyslipidaemia management.
- Non-HDL-C
- Total cholesterol minus HDL-C, capturing all atherogenic apolipoprotein B-containing particles and used as a secondary lipid target.
- Apolipoprotein B (apoB)
- A protein carried on atherogenic lipoproteins; apoB testing gives a particle count and is increasingly used alongside LDL-C in risk assessment.
- Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a))
- A genetically determined lipoprotein associated with cardiovascular risk; Lp(a) testing and emerging therapies are a likely focus for lipid clinicians.
- Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH)
- An inherited disorder causing very high LDL-C from birth, requiring early detection, family cascade screening and intensive lipid-lowering therapy.
- Atherosclerosis
- The build-up of plaque in arteries driven by apoB-containing lipoproteins, inflammation and other risk factors; a core scientific topic at lipid congresses.
- Lipid-lowering therapy
- Treatment to reduce atherogenic lipids, including statins, ezetimibe, PCSK9-targeted therapies, inclisiran and emerging RNA-based medicines.
- PCSK9 inhibitors
- Monoclonal antibodies that lower LDL-C by blocking PCSK9-mediated LDL receptor degradation, used in high-risk and familial hypercholesterolaemia care.
- Inclisiran
- A small interfering RNA therapy that reduces PCSK9 production and lowers LDL-C with infrequent subcutaneous dosing.
- Statins
- Oral medicines that inhibit HMG-CoA reductase and lower LDL-C; foundational therapy in cardiovascular prevention and a common discussion point for adherence and intolerance.
- Ezetimibe
- An oral cholesterol absorption inhibitor commonly combined with statins to achieve additional LDL-C lowering.
- Remnant cholesterol
- Cholesterol carried in triglyceride-rich remnant particles, associated with atherosclerotic risk especially in diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
- Lipidomics
- Large-scale study of lipid species and pathways, used to discover biomarkers and mechanistic insights in cardiometabolic disease.
- Cardiovascular risk score
- A validated tool that combines risk factors to estimate future cardiovascular events and guide lipid-lowering treatment decisions.
- Medical nutrition therapy
- Individualised dietary counselling for lipid disorders, including approaches to saturated fat, fibre, plant sterols, omega-3 and weight management.
