Ask your questions during interactive sessions
At Heart Failure 2025 in Belgrade, you'll be able to ask your questions directly to faculty.
A lecture room will be devoted exclusively to interactive sessions. These will include Cases and How-To sessions, as well as special sessions where participants can interact with world-renowned experts to increase lively interaction.
Sharing learning and discovering together
Join us in Belgrade for an exciting face to to face event and enjoying the thrill of discovering, learning, and sharing together in-person.
The Scientific Programme will also feature exciting symposia, Guidelines in Practice sessions, as well as Debates on some controversial issues.
The most important updates in the latest science will reveal the results from the latest clinical trials and registries, shown during several Late-Breaking Science sessions.
Young community special track
The young community's growing interest in heart failure has led to a great representation at the congress.
We are excited that the HFA Young community will be a contributor to the programme.
A dedicated track with sessions of interest will complement other young community events as well as career guidance from the leading experts.
Original research and awards
Take part in the congress by presenting your abstract or clinical case and showcase your work in front of peers and leading experts and receive long term recognition.
Selected for the outstanding quality of their work, young investigators will be competing in sessions for a prestigious award, presenting their original research in front of the jury and a panel of renowned experts in specific fields.
A dedicated Nursing and Allied Professions Award session will highlight the best abstracts in this field.
The programme is completed with the Rapid Fire Oral abstract sessions and Moderated ePosters, without missing the Clinical Case presentations.
