Welcome Address

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I would like to invite you to the 22nd ERS and the 27th ISIAN Congress which will be held on the beautiful island of Crete, Greece, June 15 to 19 2008.
As president of the Organizing Committee, I urge you to mark your calendar and join us in creating an exciting event in Rhinology history! The Congress will be attended by 1500 ENT specialists from all over the world.

Crete's history begins in the 3rd Millennium BC. Apart from Knossos and Faestos, the most famous ancient sites, Byzantine monasteries and medieval castles, the island offers a variety of natural beauties to be found in its mountains, gorgeous and clear sea waters. By joining us in Crete, will be an entirely different experience offering to you the additional opportunity to appreciate and enjoy Greek hospitality, culture and cuisine. The date and site of the Congress are well chosen. The weather is ideal in Crete in June and the Creta Maris Congress Center, which is a modern, fully equipped conference facility, is located in an ideal environment to host our Congress.

We are developing a program to organize an outstanding educational conference, covering the latest worldwide achievements in Rhinology with teaching courses and the exhibition debates, plenary sessions, round table discussions, and more…

Prominent names in the field will present lectures with their latest achievements. Time frame is also given to the industry to organize Satellite Symposia. I am looking forward to welcoming you to Crete and thank you.
