Join us virtually September 27–29, 2021

Expectations of the 2021 Program:

COH and KCVD Awards Program
Keynote Lecture
Clinical science and primary care sessions
Symposia on hot topics
Basic and translational science weighted toward presentations derived from submitted abstracts

Abstract submissions are closed

We know this has been an exceptionally challenging year in so many ways. We want to recognize all the research and clinical work that has been performed during this difficult time. Therefore, attendees can expect that the program will be dedicated to important and innovative clinical topics in hypertension as well as research performed by our members and attendees. The latter will primarily include abstract presentations.

The Hypertension Council fosters excellence in hypertension research and education in support of the AHA’s mission. Hypertension remains a world-wide public-health challenge and is a leading cause of stroke, heart disease, and the progression of chronic kidney disease. The annual Hypertension Scientific Sessions showcases timely research.

The KCVD Council works to reduce cardiovascular-related disability and death through research, communication, advocacy, and education about the kidney. Kidney disease is a major cause and consequence of cardiovascular disease. Chronic renal insufficiency can contribute to development of hypertension, vascular disease, atherosclerosis and other morbidity and mortality risk factors.
