Abstracts, cases and late-breaking clinical trial research are central to the scientific program and this global exchange of innovation.

At ACC.27 Together With WCC, you can present your work on an international stage, connect with peers worldwide and discuss your research with leading experts. Accepted abstracts will also be published online in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC), one of the world's top-ranked cardiovascular journals.

Submissions will be accepted in a wide range of categories, including Young Investigator Awards; abstracts across 10 learning pathways plus Spotlight on Special Topics; Complex Clinical Cases; CV Team Abstracts and Cases; and Late-Breaking Clinical Trials.
