2025 Family Heart Global Summit®
Catalyzing Collective Action for Lp(a) & FH: Connecting Individuals, Clinicians and Communities
September 20 & 21, 2025 in Atlanta, GA
The annual Family Heart Global Summit® is the only conference solely dedicated to aligning stakeholders and catalyzing solutions to reduce the burden of cardiovascular disease in people with inherited lipid disorders, including familial hypercholesterolemia, homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, and high lipoprotein(a).
The 2025 Family Heart Global Summit’s meeting theme is “Catalyzing Collective Action for Lp(a) & FH: Connecting Individuals, Clinicians and Communities.” The meeting will convene academia, industry, public health stakeholders, and individuals living with inherited lipid disorders to provide engagement through didactic learning, expert panel discussions, and most importantly audience participation.
Don’t be left out of the conversation as we discuss how to bridge the gaps between innovation and impact, while looking at the use of available data and AI, addressing health equity, and implementing best practices to avoid disease development in populations at risk and provide support to all who are struggling with a broken healthcare system.
