Event Overview
Welcome message:
<p>It
is our great pleasure to invite you to the Heart Failure Congress 2013,
which will be held in Lisbon, Portugal from 25 to 28 May 2013.</p><p>Organised by the Heart Failure Association of the European Society of
Cardiology ( HFA of the ESC), the Heart Failure Congress is a unique
forum where cardiologists, interventional heart failure specialists,
cardiac surgeons, internists, practicing general physicians, basic
scientists, epidemiologists, cardiac nurses, industry affiliates and
others have the opportunity to meet and exchange ideas and information.</p><p>The HFA congress is an international event open to anyone interested
in any aspect of heart failure from epidemiology, through basic and
translational science to prevention (reviewing the treatment of
hypertension and post-infarction care), diagnosis (including novel
imaging modalities and biomarkers), monitoring (together with remote
monitoring), prognostication (risk stratification as well as use of
biomarkers), medical and nursing management (including drugs, devices,
tele-care and surgery). All of the clinical aspects are reinforced in
the HFA Focus case based sessions. The programme will also include
updates on the latest clinical trials, reviews of the best published
papers and a summary of the most important heart failure presentations
at the major international cardiology conferences, as well as joint
sessions held with other international societies. There will also be
presentations of new clinically relevant areas, such as diastolic heart
failure. A specific track will discuss the role of the heart failure
specialist of tomorrow looking into interventional cardiology,
electrophysiology, and cardiac surgery. Additionally, several European
Associations and Heart Failure National Societies will offer their
contribution to highlight different perspectives of clinical management.</p><p>We invite you to use this unique opportunity to present your original
research and exchange your experiences in all related heart failure
topics by submitting an abstract (Abstract submission from 15 November
2012 to 14 January 2013). The top ranking abstracts will be presented
orally and a large area will be dedicated to poster presentations, the
perfect platform to meet peers and colleagues. As in previous years,
travel grants will be available to a number of top ranking abstract
presenters.</p><p>Lively, international Lisbon, is the ideal venue for a Congress with
our profile and scope. The cityʼs wealth of historical, cultural and
social attractions will undoubtedly be the perfect addition to complete
your congress experience! Hotel and restaurant prices are very
reasonable, and the weather at the end of May should be perfect.</p><p>We hope to see you at Heart Failure 2013 in Lisbon. Please make your plans early, as this promises to be a congress to remember!</p><table cellspacing=\"4\" style=\"width:100%;\"><tbody><tr><td style=\"text-align:left;width:25%;vertical-align:top;\"><strong><span style=\"color:#cc0033;\">B.
