ESC Congress 2020 – The Digital Experience

Cardiology


29 August to 1 September 2020

ESC Congress – the world’s largest cardiovascular event – moves 100% online for the first time in its 70-year history, to create ESC Congress 2020 – Challenging Times, Infinite Possibilities.

The decision by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) follows an announcement from the Dutch government banning public gatherings until 1 September to prevent the spread of coronavirus.

This cutting-edge, online event will be extraordinary. The ESC is creating a digital experience to disseminate the most exciting cardiovascular science in the most engaging formats possible – and featuring key opinion leaders from around the world.

A taste of what’s to come:

  • Dedicated COVID-19 track showcasing first-hand experience of top experts across the globe.
  • Late-Breaking Trial Sessions revealing the most anticipated clinical results.
  • Novel research presented in abstracts covering all areas of cardiovascular science.
  • Key opinion leaders explaining how new research impacts practice.
  • New ESC Clinical Practice Guidelines introduced and discussed by those who wrote them.

Stay tuned for details of online press conferences.

 

The call for Late-Breaking Science is open until 21 May.
