The Complete Guide to the Hypertension Scientific Sessions 2026

Hypertension Scientific Sessions 2026 takes place 7-11 October 2026 at Hyatt Regency Crystal City in Arlington, Virginia. AHA describes a single integrated clinical track for clinicians, clinician scientists and primary care physicians, with plenary and recent-advances sessions, oral abstract sessions, award lectures, early-career programming and mid-career mentorship roundtables. The abstract page gives a clear deadline of 24 June 2026 at 6:00 p.m. CDT, with AHA member and non-member submission fees, plus award routes for the Council on Hypertension and the Council on Kidney in Cardiovascular Disease. Registration pricing is published in USD with professional, early-career and student/trainee tiers; the GBP cost fields are intentionally blank. This is a research-heavy international hypertension meeting with strong abstract and awards value, but UK trainees should treat it as a high-cost overseas option unless virtual or institutional funding is available.
