European Society of Cardiology

European Society of Cardiology

The ESC is a world leader in the discovery and dissemination of best practices in cardiovascular medicine.
We are a volunteer-led, not-for-profit medical society. Our members and decision-makers are scientists, clinicians, nurses and allied professionals working in all fields of cardiology.
We unite national cardiac societies from around the world. This unique network allows us to understand the impact of cardiovascular disease and how we can better reduce its burden. Our diversity is our strength.
The ESC represents over 100,000 cardiovascular professionals from 140 countries. The ESC includes 7 subspecialty associations, 5 councils, 15 working groups, 56 national cardiac societies. It also includes a distinguished community of ESC Fellows.

Cardiovascular disease is the biggest killer in Europe, accounting for 4 million deaths per year (47% of all mortalities) and costing the EU economy an estimated €196 billion annually.
Everything we do advances the prevention, diagnosis and management of diseases of the heart and blood vessels.

 The ESC disseminates evidence-based scientific knowledge to cardiovascular professionals so they can better care for their patients.
