Let’s begin our journey to the heart of cardiology together!
ESC Congress covers all cardiovascular medicine and science with presentations and discussions of the latest research findings, new guidelines, as well as in-depth clinical teaching and education.
Programme times are displayed on local times in London.
Browse through the Scientific Programme and bookmark your sessions of interest.
You will be immersed in ground-breaking research, trailblazing technology, and unparalleled networking opportunities both in London and online.
The ESC Congress Programme Committee is designing an outstanding programme with the main goal of improving patient care through education and integration of new research and guidelines into clinical practice.
This Year’s Spotlight: Personalising Cardiovascular Care
Tailoring or customising medical decisions to an individual, moving away from the one-size-fits-all approach to individualised treatment.
Discover sessions on:
- emerging or future prevention, diagnosis and treatment approaches based on genetics and “-omics”
- targeting treatments according to clinical phenotype
- individualised decision-making where there are treatment choices
- management of our increasingly complex and multimorbid patients
- co-decision making with patients
New ESC Clinical Practice Guidelines
In 2024, four major guidelines will be unveiled, presenting the most up to date recommendations to inform clinical practice and improve patient outcomes:
- Arterial hypertension
- Chronic coronary syndromes
- Atrial fibrillation
- Peripheral arterial and aortic diseases
Each guideline release will be followed by an 'Ask the Guideline Task Force' session, interactive Q&A with the guideline Task Force Chairs and Members to provide an in-depth understanding of the new guidelines.
In addition, 'Guidelines in Practice' sessions will showcase clinical cases to illustrate the practical applications of the new recommendations.
Late-Breaking Science Unveiled
Important new clinical trials will be presented and discussed with insights from key opinion leaders.
Clinical Implementation Track
The clinical implementation track will highlight sessions focused on the practical application of diagnostic approaches and treatments in clinical practice. How can we ensure the widest application of the evidence we have?
Whether onsite in London or online around the world, get the information and the guidance you need for your practice.
Digital Health
Digital Health is supporting and transforming healthcare. Again, this year, a Digital Health Stage will set the scene for scientific sessions related to digital transformation and its implications for daily practice today and in the near future.
Obesity Track
Obesity is a huge and increasing health problem globally that affects all aspects of cardiovascular practice. With the emergence of new dietary, pharmacological and interventional/surgical approaches to this problem it is vital that all cardiologists understand the importance of obesity and the emerging therapeutic options.
Patient engagement
The patient's voice is reflected throughout the programme, across all topic areas. Hear and learn from patients’ experiences!
General Cardiology for Physicians, Technicians, General Practitioners & Nurses and Allied Professionals
Organised in collaboration with the British Cardiovascular Society.
A programme designed specifically for Physicians with an interest in Cardiology, including Geriatricians, General Practitioners, Nurses, Technicians, Pharmacists, and other Allied Health Professionals, which will address provide clinical practice updates on key advances across the spectrum of Cardiology.
Highlights for the Young Community
Follow your congress journey through sessions tagged by the ESC Committee for Young Cardiovascular Professionals particularly relevant for young cardiovascular professionals.
The committee is also in charge of putting together the clinical case programme.
Original science in the Research Gateway
Home for abstracts and clinical cases, this is the place to discuss new research, findings and clinical practice with presenters.
