This annual event attracts speakers and
delegates from around the globe, including many of the world's leading
experts on sports cardiology and young sudden cardiac death.
The aim of the CRY conferences is to draw together experts in the
fields of sports cardiology, inherited cardiac diseases and sudden
cardiac death in the young, who will present contemporary topics and
developments in their respective fields.
The purpose of the conferences is to create an
opportunity for all those involved in the care of athletes and young
individuals in general to gain up to date knowledge relating to the
effects of athletic training and the diagnosis and management of
individuals with inherited cardiac diseases, in the hope of
preventing tragic young sudden deaths in the future.
