Your WeekendThursday is your head start. Swing by the Plaza Lobby, Level 3, between 3:00 and 8:00 PM to grab your badge and bag, and walk in Friday morning stress-free. Care Team Forum guests, we’ll see you at 7:00 in the Flagship Ballroom. Friday opens at 7:00 AM with breakfast and exhibits, and the program kicks off at 8:30 sharp. We start with genetics and family screening, move into imaging and the Maxwell Saines Memorial Lecture on AI in cardiovascular care, then tackle the disease mimickers and close with sudden death prevention. Afterward, join everyone at the All-Attendee Reception overlooking Boston Harbor (6:30–8:30 PM, Lighthouse I Ballroom). Saturday is all about treatment. Myosin inhibitors, a head-to-head debate on whether beta-blockers are still first-line, surgery and catheter-based therapy, nonobstructive HCM, and AF. Barry Maron closes the day remembering Eugene Braunwald’s contributions to HCM. Then it’s on to the HCMA Reception (7:00–9:00 PM, RSVP required). Sunday is not one to skip. We cover HCM and pregnancy, whether everyone should be on a GLP-1, “Cases from the Vault” with our clinical masters, exercise and athletes, the global HCM picture, a remarkable patient-turned-physician story, and the big question: is gene therapy a cure? Breakfast starts at 6:45, and we wrap at 2:15 PM with a to-go lunch, so you can grab a bite for the road. Industry sessions run all weekend. See the full lineup below.
