Paris, France 19-22 May 2026. The Palais de Congrès will once again host EuroPCR, the foremost international Course in interventional cardiovascular medicine whose reputation in education, innovation and sharing experience is the fruit of generations of scientific and clinical practice. Four days during which medical professionals at any level of experience – from fellow to seasoned specialist to allied health professional– will find something of value in this dynamic and unique learning experience that fosters better patient care for all.
The essence of EuroPCR is exemplified in this year’s theme “Education saves lives: Preventing and solving complications”. Building on the PCR commitment to the highest level of evidence-based medical practice, EuroPCR has shown year after year that the open sharing and transmission of scientific knowledge and clinical experience benefits all and advances the quality of interventional practice.
Education is a continual process and under the guidance of the 3 Course Directors, Thomas Cuisset, Nicolas Dumonteil, Nieves Gonzalo, as well as the PCR Chairman, Bernard Prendergast and PCR Honorary Chairman Jean Fajadet, the Course is in constant evolution. EuroPCR 2026 represents 4 days of quality content and open exchange, all animated by innovative and interactive formats which provide an exceptional educational experience based on science and best practice. Designed for all levels of experience, with topics covering the needs of interventional cardiologists as well as nurses and allied professionals, EuroPCR is also honoured to include researchers, innovators and industry partners all working together to provide an ethical, practical and transformative experience.
Reflecting the true spirit of PCR mentorship, 18 case-based Learning Sessions have been specially developed where the scientific session has been designed by a duo consisting of an experienced Course Facilitator working in tandem with a younger colleague representing the next generation of Course faculty, guaranteeing that the transmission of experience, not just clinical and scientific, but also the impactful, practice-changing, peer-to-peer learning experience that is EuroPCR!
Record submissions touch every aspect of the Course this year and underline EuroPCR’s exemplary scientific reputation and active participation by the medical community worldwide. Submissions are limited to 3 per individual, so the over 3,400 submissions represent the dynamic and broad interest individuals have in participating in EuroPCR 2026.
And don’t forget, in addition to the main EuroPCR programme, the day before EuroPCR is dedicated to the PCR Fellows Course tailored for fellows and physicians at an early stage of their practice as interventionalists, and PCR Innovators Day, where the key stakeholders in innovation in the cardiovascular community come together to discover cutting-edge breakthroughs and networking opportunities. Also taking place on this day for the first time, is The Physiology Course (TPC) in collaboration with EuroPCR, a high-impact, one-day course designed for both early-career and experienced interventional cardiologists who want to embed coronary physiology into decision-making in every case.
