MADRID IS WAITING FOR YOU
WELCOME to the EACMFS Congress 2022
By Julio Acero
President of EACMFS and of the 26th Congress
Javier González Lagunas
Chairman of the Scientific Committee
FINALLY, THE TIME HAS ARRIVED. Time to listen to the opinion leaders of the specialty. Time to learn from experts that will cover the full scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery. Time to share your experience with you peers. Time to meet and greet with colleagues from all over the world. Time to visit Madrid, Spain´s capital, a modern, open and welcoming city.
Only two months to go. On September 26th, maxillofacial surgeons from all over the world will gather in Madrid to attend the EACMFS 26th Congress. A Congress that will be regionally organized but with a global spirit in its mind. The meeting will not also present the state of the art of European Oral and Cranio-maxillofacial surgery. It has opened its doors to scientific associations coming from all over the world. A unique opportunity after almost 30 months of scientific drought.
We have suffered the pandemic, we were obliged to cancel the live version of the Paris congress, all our professional interactions were online. With the European Lecture series, and with the online version of the Paris congress, we could at least keep the spark of education (our main goal as association) alive.
But now it is time to go back to pre-pandemic times. We need to meet, to talk, to hug, to toast, to discuss. Not on the computer screen, but live in the Congress Palace of Madrid. Our numbers are outstanding, nearly 1500 free papers, 10 simultaneous scientific sessions to choose from, more than 200 speakers, 18 keynote lectures, 24 masterclasses… But it is not only the numbers, it is the quality of the speakers, the relevance of the research, the experience that will distil from the presenters and an exciting social program which will make the 26th EACMFS Congress and unforgettable event. And in the back-office of it all, the enthusiasm that the organizers, and by extension the association, have put in the success of the event. Just check our program.
From Madrid, we are looking forward to meet you. Do not miss this opportunity, You will not regret it. ■ Palacio de Cibeles. Interior and roof of the "Galería de Cristal" in Madrid. Formerly "Patio de coches". Palace of the Dukes of Pastrana. Gardens. Casa Suecia, Roof Top.
