Join us on November 11-13 for the virtual 26th AFC Congress. The theme for this year's scientific meeting is "Daig ng Maagap ang Masipag: The Essence of Timing in Cardiology".

"Daig ng Maagap ang Masipag" is a Filipino proverb equivalent to the western adage "a stitch in time, saves nine".

It highlights the value of being proactive and acting at the most opportune moment.

The topics for this convention will delve into the temporal elements of cardiovascular disease. Experts from the Asean region will expound on the approach to expedite diagnoses, as well as illustrate methods to facilitate interventions.

This scientific meeting is under the auspice of the ASEAN Federation of Cardiology and organized by the Philippine Heart Association.
