We will have the pleasure to see you again next year in Milan, Italy, from 3 to 5 April

Since the time of ancient Greek physicians, it was known that organs do not function in isolation. Recent preventive therapies are based on this crosstalk: a transporter in the renal tubule is connected to heart failure; a protein in the liver is key to atherosclerotic plaque formation, and regular training of our skeletal muscles may limit cardiomyocyte loss. These are just a few examples of inter-organ crosstalk we discussed at ESC Preventive Cardiology 2024 to tackle cardiovascular risk.

ESC Preventive Cardiology 2024 translated this knowledge into practical application. Sessions based on real life clinical scenarios addressed current guidelines 'put into practice'.

We discovered new developments in tackling traditional cardiovascular risk factors such as diabetes, dyslipidaemia, hypertension, obesity and sedentarism, and also explore the role of environmental factors such as stress and pollution. Moreover, we addressed pertinent issues in cardiomyopathies, sports and occupational cardiology.

You shared your latest findings on effectively implementing recent innovations to improve patients’ lives. ESC Preventive Cardiology 2024 brought answers to address the evolving needs of clinical practice in 2024 and beyond. Our welcoming and diverse community fostered an environment of collaboration where we can discover, learn, and share science together.

All of us at the European Association of Preventive Cardiology are looking forward to seeing you again in Milan in 2025.
