The American College of Cardiology’s (ACC’s) 61st Annual Scientific Session & Expo reflects our passion for science, education and peer-to-peer networking.

ACC.12 in Chicago will highlight the ACC’s focus on lifelong learning and practice improvement, and with a new learning pathway structure we can better address the needs of you, our learners.

At the ACC.12 Expo, more than 300 exhibiting companies and organizations will showcase the latest advances in pharmaceuticals, imaging, devices, health IT and the services you need to provide high-quality care to your patients.

New this year: ACC.12 will officially kick off with the opening session at 8 a.m. on Saturday, March 24, and will close on Tuesday, March 27, at noon with a brand new ACC.12 Innovators session featuring the top leaders in cardiology.
