The Emory Symposium on Coronary Atherosclerosis Prevention & Education (ESCAPE) brings together nationally recognized experts to explore the latest advances in cardiovascular disease prevention, risk assessment, and clinical care.

Hosted by Emory University School of Medicine, the three-day program will examine emerging evidence and practical strategies related to hypertension management, lipid control, heart failure, women’s cardiovascular health, cardiac amyloidosis, electrophysiology, and interventional cardiology. Sessions will also address evolving topics such as the expanding role of GLP-1 receptor agonists, the PREVENT risk score, and team-based care models designed to improve cardiovascular outcomes.

Participants will gain practical insights into applying current ACC/AHA clinical guidelines and emerging research findings in real-world clinical settings. The program includes expert lectures, case-based discussions, and panel Q&A sessions designed to translate new knowledge into improved patient care.
