Conference Coverage

Connecting at TCT 2018


 

The 30th anniversary of the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics meeting in San Diego, sponsored by the Cardiovascular Research Foundation, will be the temporary home of more than 10,000 attendees. That’s up from about 9,400 last year.

Even so, that leaves a lot of folks who can’t be in sunny California. Keep in touch with friends near and far by using social media. Twitter hashtags for the meeting are #TCT2018 and #TCTConference.

The organizers encourage attendees to share their experiences and the educational content from the meeting, keeping in mind embargoes and some limitations, by posting photos, slides, or short video clips. Also, presentation slides will be online immediately after the sessions.

Attendees also can connect with each other using the the CRF Events app, available for free download here. But we recommend that meet outside if you can, considering the weather report.
