Below is a photo of me at the 5th Biannual Mitral Conclave in New York City. The meeting, happening May 2nd-3rd, 2019, is the largest gathering of mitral valve surgeons from 61 countries around the world!
Here is a little information on the conference:
“The 2019 AATS Mitral Conclave continues its tradition as the benchmark meeting in the field of mitral valve disease. The faculty includes over 70 international leaders in the field, and the program features over 200 invited or submitted lectures, abstracts, and video presentations.
During the two day Conclave every topic in mitral valve disease will be covered, with a unique emphasis on technical aspects of reconstructive valve surgery. Six plenary lecture sessions, four expert video sessions, twenty-two breakout sessions, and eight lunch sessions are sure to generate a high energy learning environment as the mitral world comes together for two days.”
