The Scientific Organizing Committee of the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) 2026 Congress brings together leading experts dedicated to advancing hypertension science and cardiometabolic health. In line with the ESH’s mission to establish “a stable and organised European platform for scientific exchange in hypertension”, the Committee aims to curate an innovative and multidisciplinary programme that highlights the latest breakthroughs, fosters collaboration between clinicians and researchers, and translates evidence into practice — ultimately improving blood pressure treatment and control across Europe.

The committee listed below is dedicated to the ESH Annual Meeting, while the full ESH Scientific Council can be found on the official ESH website.
