American Society of Extra-Corporeal Technology - AMSECT 2027

AmSECT reports a global membership base that anchors conference attendance: The American Society of ExtraCorporeal Technology has more than 2,000 members globally. Historically, the International Conference has drawn several hundred perfusionists — for example, promotional materials for the 2016 (54th) conference invited exhibitors to connect with 300 to 400 leading perfusionists at the American Society of ExtraCorporeal Technology's International Conference. Official attendance figures specific to the 2027 Nashville conference have not been published.

Specific per-booth exhibitor pricing for the 2027 conference was not published in the sources reviewed. AmSECT's conference prospectus does outline sponsorship and engagement opportunities alongside exhibiting; examples include an exclusive mobile app sponsorship at $5,000 and a Passport to Prizes program at $500 (10 available), in which attendees who visit all participating exhibitor booths are entered into a prize drawing, with sponsors providing a prize of $100-plus value. Prospective exhibitors should contact AmSECT directly for the current exhibit prospectus and booth rates.

Registration for the AmSECT International Conference is handled through the official AmSECT website (amsect.org), typically with tiered pricing for members, non-members, and students, plus early-bird savings. In past years an early-bird deadline was offered for maximum savings — for the 54th conference, AmSECT advised attendees to register by the early bird deadline of February 16 for maximum savings. Attendance earns Category I CEUs, and CEUs are awarded based on the sessions attended (1 CEU = 50 minutes), including virtual pre-conference sessions and the in-person conference. Registration details and deadlines specific to the 2027 Nashville conference are released by AmSECT closer to the event.

AmSECT traces its roots to the founding of the professional society itself. The American Society of ExtraCorporeal Technology was founded in 1964 with the belief that members of the then-new allied health field could best serve their profession by sharing their knowledge and experiences. The International Conference has been held annually for more than six decades and rotates among U.S. host cities; recent editions include the 2026 conference in Austin, Texas (March 25-29), the 2025 conference in San Diego, California, the 2024 conference in New Orleans, Louisiana, and the 2023 conference in Orlando, Florida. The 64th AmSECT International Conference was held March 25-29, 2026 at the Austin Marriott Downtown in Austin, Texas, and the 2027 Nashville event marks the 65th edition.
