Scripps Arrhythmias and Cardiomyopathy in Women Symposium 2026 — heart, hormones and menopause
The Scripps Arrhythmias and Cardiomyopathy in Women Symposium 2026 took place on 28 February 2026 at The Westin Carlsbad Resort & Spa and is recorded here as 20 videos, no PDFs. Leading voices including C. Noel Bairey Merz, Annabelle Santos Volgman and Nanette Wenger join gynecologists and primary care experts to cover sex-specific risk, AF with HFpEF, cardio-oncology in breast cancer, SCAD, device disparities — and an unusually deep menopause programme on hormone therapy safety, bone, weight, migraine and VTE risk.
