The HFA Winter Research Meeting will debut at a new venue in Vienna this coming January, but its founding interactive spirit remains intact. We warmly encourage you to submit your abstracts and join us for this dynamic event, organised by the Heart Failure Association in collaboration with the Working Group on Myocardial Function.
What sets this meeting apart is its unique blend of cutting-edge basic science and state-of-the-art translational and clinical knowledge, all aimed at advancing heart failure treatment. The programme not only features presentations by invited speakers but also dedicates significant time to abstracts presented as oral presentations or posters. This is an excellent opportunity for early-stage researchers to advance their careers, build networks, and receive valuable insights from key leaders in the field, all within a relaxed atmosphere during both academic sessions and social events.
The HFA Winter Research Meeting has a rich tradition and has become Europe's premier basic and translational heart failure conference. It began in 1983, initiated by Professor Dirk Brutsaert (the founding president of the Heart Failure Association of the ESC). The first official meeting was chaired by Sir James Whyte Black, who developed the first beta-blockers and was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1988.
This edition will take place in Vienna from 20 to 22 January and abstracts’ submission is open until 15 October.
On behalf of the Organising Committee, we extend a warm invitation to participate, and we look forward to welcoming you to Vienna!
