The Complete Guide to the Resuscitation Science Symposium 2026

Resuscitation Science Symposium 2026 runs 7-8 November 2026 at McCormick Place Convention Center in Chicago. The AHA page positions ReSS as an international forum for recent advances in treating cardiopulmonary arrest, bench-to-bedside and community-based resuscitation research, emergency cardiovascular care and CPR quality improvement in adults and paediatrics. General abstract and clinical case report submission had closed by the time checked, but late-breaking resuscitation science abstracts open on 22 June 2026 and close on 24 August 2026. The abstract page describes Best of the Best Abstract Awards and Early Career Investigator Awards, making this a strong research and QI outlet for emergency, critical care and resuscitation-focused clinicians. Registration was due to open on 17 June 2026 and professional members receive discounted registration plus OnDemand access. GBP costs are blank because pricing was not confidently visible in GBP.
