Come join us for the 9th Annual International Hawaii Symposium on Diagnostic and Therapeutic Modalities in Heart Failure will be held from December 5-7, 2019 at the delightful Waikoloa Beach Marriott on the beautiful Island of Hawaii. The Island has not been more beautiful in years!  The sky is robin-egg blue every day with incredible clouds and sunsets.  The air is super high quality, and visibility is incredible.  

We hope that you will join us for an informative meeting in a beautiful island setting!
