I’m off to Boston: Attending the International AF Symposium 2019

Published January 21, 2019

To stay current about advances in the treatment of Atrial Fibrillation, each year I attend the annual International AF Symposium. The AF Symposium is one of the most important scientific conferences on A-Fib in the world. This year the conference is January 24-26, 2019 in Boston.

This intensive, highly focused three-day symposium brings together more than 50 of the world’s leading medical scientists, cardiologists and cardiac electrophysiologists (EPs) for a thorough and practical course on the current state of the art in the field of atrial fibrillation.

My goal is to offer A-Fib.com readers the most up-to-date research and developments in the treatment of A-Fib that may impact their treatment choices.

This meeting has become a major scientific forum for health care professionals to learn about advances in research and therapeutics directly from many of the most eminent researchers, scientists and investigators in the field.

Reports for A-Fib.com: I usually attend all of the over 65 presentations, live procedures via video, and panel discussions. I then select the topics of most importance from a patient’s point of view and write summaries for patients with Atrial Fibrillation.

My goal is to offer A-Fib.com readers the most up-to-date research and developments that may impact their treatment choices. Look for my reports in the coming months.

My 2018 Summaries: In the meantime, you can review my reports from the 2018 AF Symposium.
