We have been recently receiving questions about ECE 2023 in Istanbul, Turkey, and would like to reassure you that we are working on the arrangements for ECE 2023 to run as planned.
We are saddened by the recent earthquake, and the devastation that has been caused in the southern part of Turkey and Syria, and are in close communication with our Turkish colleagues about this and any potential impact on ECE. They are in regular contact with the local Government and Mayor's office and there are currently no issues arising which will directly affect ECE therefore we are fully moving ahead with the congress as planned.
We will continue to keep a close watch on the local situation (as we do for every city and country we hold ECE in) and pro-actively advise our members and the wider endocrine community should there be any impact on ECE 2023.
You are welcome to share this message with your colleagues in case you receive questions.
We look forward to seeing you either in Istanbul or online during ECE 2023.
Kind regards,
Anton Luger
ECAS Representative to ESE ExCo
