Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Turkish Society of Molecular Medicine, it is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 2 nd International Congress of Molecular Medicine which will be held in İstanbul – Turkey on March 24-26, 2007.

The comprehensive scope of our meeting, addressing the interests of physicians, scientists and other healthcare professionals and the industry, may be challenging to all at the same. We aim to merge our interest in molecular medicine and to establish a link between basic and clinic sciences. For the clinician, there is a perspective to appreciate the wide-reaching clinical relevance of scientific discovery.

A large part of the program is devoted to invited speakers and poster presentations. The Molecular Medicine Congress participants will receive CME credits from the Turkish Medical Society.

The Congress of Molecular Medicine also features industry satellite and exhibits to complement the scientific session. This provides an opportunity for companies to exhibit their technologies and products to an international community of over 1000 researchers, medical scientists and industry participants.

We assure you that your stay in İstanbul will be academically, educationally and socially rewarding and we are looking forward to welcome you to the 2 nd Congress of Molecular Medicine to celebrate global advances in Molecular Medicine.

Prof. Dr. Turgay İsbir
