Join us 28 January – 1 February as we celebrate 20 years of progress and innovation in PH. This year’s programme highlights advances in PAH, CTEPH, and PH in lung disease, with sessions on emerging therapies, precision medicine, and future directions.
Leading researchers showcase cutting-edge bioengineering and bioprinting technologies — from organ-on-a-chip models to 3D-printed vasculature — driving new insights into pulmonary hypertension mechanisms and therapies.
Living Legend Stuart Rich shares insights from four decades of pioneering research that transformed the understanding and treatment of pulmonary hypertension, in conversation with Serpil Erzurum and Saad Kubba.
This webinar brings together leading experts to explore the urgent need for new therapies in bronchopulmonary dysplasia-associated pulmonary hypertension. You’ll gain a clear overview of current care, key research gaps, and the real-world challenges of designing meaningful trials for preterm infants — all aimed at advancing treatment for this under-recognised condition.
An on-demand recording of PVRI’s December PH Community Call, featuring informal discussion on emerging science and patient-focused research in pulmonary hypertension. The session covers new insights into hypoxic PH mechanisms and exercise interventions in PAH, with expert-led moderation and open exchange.
The establishment of the pulmonary hypertension center in Giessen, initiated in the late 1980s and further developed over the following decades by the founding team of Friedrich Grimminger, Ardeschir Ghofrani, Ralph Schermuly, and myself, has its roots in research projects on acute lung injury, ARDS. Employing the multiple gas elimination technique (MIGET), we observed severe ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) mismatch with high shunt in the ARDS lungs, accompanied by elevated pulmonary artery pressure levels.
Una sesión concisa y dirigida por expertos sobre la hipertensión pulmonar del Grupo 2—diagnóstico, clasificación actualizada y estrategias de tratamiento—con un análisis de caso en vivo.
A concise, expert-led session in Spanish exploring Group 2 pulmonary hypertension—its diagnosis, updated classification, and treatment strategies—featuring a live case discussion.
PVRI has launched a new Patient Engagement & Empowerment series designed to support people living with pulmonary hypertension, their families, and carers. Explore 11 key themes with short videos and practical resources to help build confidence, understanding, and connection throughout the PH journey.
These annual awards are given in recognition of outstanding contributions to the field of pulmonary hypertension. They celebrate notable achievements made by special individuals across the world. The PVRI Lifetime Achievement Award 2025, the PVRI Achievement Awards 2025 and the PVRI Special Recognition Award will be presented at PVRI 2026 Dublin.
We’re excited to announce the relaunch of the PVRI Digital Webinar Series, beginning September 2025. This free monthly series, open to all, brings together the global PH community for keynote presentations, rich discussion, and the opportunity to learn cutting-edge new research.
This PH Awareness Month, we’re inviting you to join the global PVRI community for our very first Breath Beyond Borders challenge. Throughout November, PVRI members and friends around the world will be taking on personal challenges — walking, running, cycling, speed skating, or even playing the piano — to shine a light on PH research and innovation, and raise funds for PVRI along the way.
