Heart and Stroke 2023
The 6th Annual Meeting of ESC Heart and Stroke was held on the 2 and 3 December 2023 in Oxford. Over two education-packed days, we invite you to learn and interact with us in eight key opinion-led sessions and discussions conducted by our faculty which includes leading cardiologists, epidemiologists, neurologists, neuro-interventionalists, and vascular surgeons.
If you are interested in the interactions between the brain and heart – such as stroke and heart failure, dysrhythmias and brain function, valvular diseases and brain symptoms, carotid disease and stroke - take a look at the programme!
