Dear Colleagues and Friends,

Hereby I would like to cordially invite you to the 49th Annual Meeting of the Austrian Society of Tropical Medicine, Parasitology and Migration Medicine, which will be held from November 12-14, 2015 at the Natural History Museum in Vienna.

This year’s conference is entitled “Breakthroughs” and again we have tried to compile an exciting programme, embracing the manifold activities of our society in the areas of tropical medicine, parasitology and migration medicine. The scientific programme will cover a diversity of topics, including basic, translational and clinical research, as well as case reports and skill enhancements. Also this year we have been able to invite renowned researchers from Austria and abroad to present their cutting-edge research. We hope that the variety of topics provide a “healthy mix” of molecular biology, epidemiology and clinical research and will attract participants from a wide range of fields. There is scope for submission of presentations in any aspect of tropical medicine, parasitology and migration medicine. Besides oral presentations we will again also have a chaired poster session giving the authors the opportunity to present and discuss their work.

We would like to particularly encourage also young scientists to attend the meeting, competitive junior and poster awards will again be provided. On this occasion I would like to express my sincere thanks to our sponsors, who support us once again in the organisation and the funding of the meeting.

I am looking forward to a thrilling, informative and rewarding conference and to seeing you all in Vienna!

On behalf of the conference committee and the board of the ÖGTPM,

Sincerely yours,

Julia Walochnik

President of the ÖGTPM
