Cardiometabolic Health in a Changing Climate
How should heat, air pollution and extreme weather change cardiometabolic research and practice?
Info about event
Time
This summer, we saw 10,000 excess deaths due to extreme heat in data from just five European countries.
Join leading national and international experts for a focused one-day course on the links between a changing climate and cardiometabolic disease - and what they mean for research, prevention and clinical practice. For clinicians, medical students and cardiometabolic researchers at every career stage.

The course aims to:
- Provide an up-to-date overview of the evidence linking climate change and environmental exposures to cardiometabolic disease.
- Explore how climate-related factors such as heat, air pollution, allergens, and changing weather patterns affect cardiometabolic health.
- Discuss how climate considerations can be integrated into cardiometabolic research, prevention strategies, and clinical practice.
- Inspire participants to contribute to societal awareness and evidence-based action on climate-related health risks.
