Welcome to Our SCPS Events Portal

Throughout our two upcoming events, we will have the opportunity to hear from experts in the field, engage in stimulating discussions, and learn from one another's experiences. In addition, we will be able to achieve new insights and a deeper appreciation for the importance of our work.

Our new cutting-edge events website aims to better serve you through a user-friendly navigation allowing information to be found more efficiently. On behalf of the organising committee, I extend my gratitude to all participants for your input and commitment to advancing the field of perfusion. I hope you find both of our events productive and rewarding.

Future Challenges In Perfusion

2025 SPRING WEBINAR
06 JUNE 2025

We are delighted to be hosting our 5th annual Spring Webinar on 6th June 2025. This year we will be discussing Future Challenges in Perfusion. We have an excellent line-up of speakers who will explore potential challenges we may face as our profession develops. Our presenters will tackle subjects such as automation in perfusion, simulation-based education, and workforce planning. Our panellists will then share their perspectives on these topics and answer any questions from the audience.

If you would like to participate as a panellist, please sign up via the SCPS website or contact us using the contact form to express your interest.

We look forward to greeting you on the day!

Many thanks,

2020 SCPS AGM

We are living in unprecedented times, which inevitably lead to unprecedented circumstances and difficult decisions. It is with great regret that I have to announce that this year’s Annual Congress of The Society of Clinical Perfusion Scientists will not be taking place in physical form. The decision has been taken by the executive committee after full discussion and careful consideration. We have a duty of care not only to you, our colleagues, but also to our patients. We feel that we cannot risk the possibility of causing an outbreak of Covid-19 within our professional group as this would not only endanger the health and welfare of us, but also potentially affect the capacity for cardiac surgery across Great Britain and Ireland.

We have moved the meeting online and are happy to invite you to our 2020 Webinar and AGM. We look forward to (virtually) seeing as many of you as possible over the 6th and 7th of November to enjoy a full academic programme and the Annual General Meetings of our Society and College.

Please follow the links to find out more and to register.

The call for abstracts has gone out and you can submit yours via the link shown below.

Thank you and ‘see’ you in November.
