ISHLT’s Annual Meeting is the world’s largest gathering of researchers and practitioners dedicated to improving the lives of patients with advanced heart and lung diseases.

We are the only global, multi-disciplinary of its kind, which gives participants a unique perspective as well as the opportunity to network with peers from around the globe. Last year, nearly 4,000 participants from 36 countries, representing 15 disciplines joined us for more than 750 presentations, 17 debates, joint symposia – and so much more.
