In addition, this year in Rome, Instructional Courses on basic topics of inner ear research will also be given. The goal of the conference is to provide a forum to promote discussion and interaction among scientists from auditory and non-auditory fields, all working in areas where mechanisms of cell stress, injury, recovery, and protection are under active investigation. The symposium will educate through platform and poster presentations and informal interactions among scientist-attendees and faculty. In addition, poster sessions will be available to provide a broader opportunity for sharing information. Six sessions, including both oral and poster presentations, provided dedicated time for researchers in otolaryngology to present their findings and encourage direct transfer of research findings into clinical practice.
Posters are invited, no registration fee is required.
The Workshop is based on a series held at intervals of about three years, beginning in 1983 in Delft, which was organized by Bert de Boer.
