On 26 November 1944, after several previous attempts, the Spanish Society of Cardiology was created during the First National Congress of Cardiology held in Madrid. The first statutes were approved and the board of directors is chaired by Dr. Carlos Jiménez Díaz.
For more than six decades, since its founding in the mid-twentieth century, the Spanish Society of Cardiology undertakes to promote cardiovascular training and research in Spain. It’s involvement in the local cardiology community is unsurpassed.
