Welcome to New Orleans!
Scientific Sessions 2025 opened yesterday with a full slate of symposia and educational programming designed to inspire, educate and connect cardiovascular professionals.
Highlights included the Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) Certificate Program, which explored the complex interplay between the heart, kidneys and metabolic system, and the Core Cardiology Symposium, offering guideline-driven updates and strategies for improving outcomes. Early career programming focused on mentorship and research development, while the Get With The Guidelines® Bootcamp provided data-driven training to enhance quality and patient care.
The Heart/Kidney Symposium encouraged interdisciplinary collaboration, and the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Medical Society (HCMS) explored multimodality imaging for diagnosis, the impact of genetics and how experts approach complex cases. The International Symposium offered a global perspective on cardiovascular research and public health.
Together, these sessions set the tone for an engaging weekend ahead — one grounded in science, mentorship and shared purpose, reflecting the association’s mission to advance cardiovascular discovery and improve lives worldwide.
