2023年第8届世界儿童心脏病学与心脏外科大会(WCPCCS2023)

A Letter from the Organizing Committee 

Greetings from the Organizing Committee of the World Congress of Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery!

The SARS-CoV19 Pandemic has resulted in overwhelming changes in virtually all aspects of our lives, including education and scientific meetings. As Co-Chairs of the 8th World Congress, we want to emphasize that, first and foremost, your safety and well being are our primary consideration. Therefore, after much discussion and weighing all the options, given the current global uncertainty we have decided to postpone the 8th World Congress of Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery until 2023.  As before, the meeting will take place in Washington DC, USA; the new dates are August 27th - September 1, 2023.

We want to thank our executive team, organizing committee, scientific program committee, Societal Partners, Institutional Partners, Appin Consulting, and many more who have developed the amazing congress and scientific program originally scheduled for September, 2021.  We will continue to capitalize on all of this hard work, as well as incorporating new science and technology, as we plan for an even better meeting in 2023. 

To this end, over the coming years, we will be presenting a series of virtual webinars and other complementary events highlighting portions of the current 2021 scientific program.  For details on these courses, join our mailing list at WCPCCS2023.org.

Stay tuned for details, and see you in DC in 2023!

Sincerely yours,
Jeff and Gil
