22nd EADV Congress
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
On behalf of the Local Organising Committee and the Turkish Society of Dermatology, we are delighted to invite you to Istanbul to participate in the 22nd EADV Congress that will be held from 3-6 October, 2013.
After the successful 5th EADV Spring Symposium in 2008, it is now a great pleasure to welcome you back to Istanbul, one of the most attractive, historical cities in the world. Istanbul is the city that bridges Europe and Asia, which you will be able to observe through the windows of the Congress Venue ICC. The new Congress venue is in the heart of the city and there are many hotels within walking distance.
The 22nd EADV Congress will be run under the theme of "Dermatovenereology in a changing world". In the industrially as well as socially changing world, dermatovenereology is becoming more and more popular. The latest developmental efforts within industry have provided us with new drugs and modalities that facilitate both the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. Moreover, these developments have led to great improvements especially in cosmetic dermatology. Both in our country and in many others, dermatovenereology has become a popular area of medical expertise and the leading choice of young doctors, which further increases the medical as well as societal impact of dermatology in this new era.
Thanks to the great efforts of the EADV's Scientific Programming Committee and the Local Scientific Committee, an outstanding programme is now ready that covers many fields of dermatology and its interesting, recent developments. We believe that our meeting will present high level scientific knowledge with the contribution of leading dermatologists and many specialists who are experts in their fields.
We are looking forward to welcoming dermatologists from all over the world to Istanbul to witness an unforgettable scientific event and feel the fascinating atmosphere of this metropolis.
Prof Dr Can Baykal (Congress President), Prof Dr Mehmet Ali Gürer (Honorary President)
