About DGK Jahrestagung
The DGK Jahrestagung is the annual meeting of the German Cardiac Society (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Kardiologie, Herz- und Kreislaufforschung) and a central meeting point for cardiology in Germany. Every spring it fills the Congress Center Rosengarten in Mannheim with cardiologists, cardiovascular researchers, cardiac surgeons, nursing professionals and industry partners. Over four days, interdisciplinary sessions bring together clinical practice and research, from prevention and imaging to interventional procedures and the treatment of heart failure and arrhythmias.

Event Highlights
The scientific programme combines interdisciplinary sessions, abstract presentations and the highlights of the year in areas such as heart failure, arrhythmias, interventional and experimental cardiology. Researchers submit their latest work through the abstract process, while industrial symposia and a product exhibition organised around the congress show new devices, drugs and digital solutions. The congress is a key forum for the German cardiology community to discuss new evidence, guidelines and the future of cardiovascular care.

The DGK Jahrestagung is where German cardiology meets each year.

For cardiologists, researchers, nursing staff and industry representatives alike, four days in Mannheim offer a comprehensive overview of cardiovascular medicine and plenty of opportunities to network.
