PHA 2024 Scientific Sessions will bring together health care professionals from all disciplines to earn continuing education credit, network with other pulmonary hypertension professionals, learn about the latest research and discuss best practices for PH treatment and management.
This year’s theme, “United Toward a Cure” ties into the PHA 2024 Conference theme, “Stronger Together.” PHA 2024 Scientific Sessions begin Thursday, Aug. 15, with poster hall presentations.

CE credits are available for physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, and pharmacists. A general participation certificate is available for other attendees. Participants should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Information for Authors of Accepted Abstracts
A horizontal poster board (8' in length x 4' in height) will be provided on-site for display in the conference Poster Hall. Posters should be slightly smaller than the board size.
