Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism of Turkey, it gives me great pleasure to invite you to participate in the 11th European Congress of Endocrinology, which will take place in Istanbul, Turkey on April 25 - 29, 2009.
I am confident that this will be a very good opportunity for you to update the relevant research data, their clinical applications with interactive moments which will clarify the uncertainties.
Istanbul, in the spring time, is a very charming venue for the congresses. It is the last eastern city when traveling from the west and last western city when traveling from the east. The city, located on two continents, has a very rich social and cultural heritage. It is endowed with unrivalled beauty complimented by unique harmony of ancient and contemporary, oriental and occidental.
Being the capital of successive Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires, Istanbul offers visitors, all the sophisticated delights of a big modern city. Whatever the inclination - excellent congress facilities, sightseeing, dining out, nightlife or shopping - it is all here.
The colorful and exciting social activities coupled with the breathtaking panorama and exotic surroundings of Istanbul will make the 11th European Congress of Endocrinology a rewarding, educational and social experience.
I look forward to welcoming you sincerely in Istanbul in 2009.
Prof. Fahrettin KELEŞTİMUR
