As always, the 2024 WSC Spotlight will be free of charge and completely virtual, enabling broad participation from all parts of the world. For years, the WSCs have engaged between 8,000 and 20,000 scholars and practitioners from more than 180 countries.

Over one day and 9 highly relevant sessions, over 40 internationally renowned speakers, panelists, and moderators will address the role of AI, predictive modeling in sepsis, the need for early diagnosis and treatment of sepsis in surgical patients, the role of biomarkers, personalized approaches to sepsis management, how hypervolemia increases the mortality risk in sepsis, community programs to prevent and diagnose sepsis, and much more.

Whatever topic and speaker is most relevant to you, the Program Chairs Louise Thwaites, Board Member of the GSA and APSA, and Michael Wong, Founder and Executive Director of PPAHS, are excited to welcome you on April 23.
