Dear Colleagues & Friends,
Both basic science and clinical related research regarding surgery and urology are essential parts of academic paediatric surgery. The International Symposium of Paediatric Surgical Research (ISPSR) serves as an important and influential forum where beneficial and rewarding exchanges of such knowledge in all aspects of paediatric surgical research can take place.
We are very proud and excited to continue this tradition of excellence by hosting the XXIII ISPSR. It is my great pleasure to humbly invite you all to attend this beneficial and productive 3 day symposium. The XXIII ISPSR will be held at “Tokyo Garden Palace” Tokyo, Japan on September 12th–14th, 2010.
Reasons to attend this meeting:
- At this meeting, abstracts that have been presented at other international meetings but have not been previously published will be accepted.
- Submitted manuscripts (oral and poster abstracts) will be considered for publication in Paediatric Surgery International.
- Clinical research papers (surgery and/or urology related) will also be considered for publication in Paediatric Surgery International.
- The XXIII ISPSR meeting in 2010 will be very special as it will be the very first time, since its successful establishment 20 years ago, that this annual meeting will be held in Asia.
Important Dates:
- Abstract Submission Deadline: June 30th 2010
- Abstract Acceptance Notification: July 21st 2010
