Welcome from the Organising Committee

We are pleased to invite you to attend the 8th congress of the European Union Geriatric Medicine Society from September 26 through 28, 2012 in Brussels Belgium. Brussels is the capital of the European Union, home to the seats of the most important European institutions (European Commission, European Parliament and the Council of the European Union). The venue of the congress, Square Brussels, is situated in the centre of the city, within walking distance from the Grand Place and the Magritte Museum.

The congress is being organised in cooperation with the Belgian Society for Gerontology and Geriatrics. Its annual “Journée d’Automne” will run in a parallel course with the main Congress. It is the aim of the conference to draw together a diverse range of researchers, clinicians and professionals working in the area of ageing, to discuss the latest findings in the field.

The Conference offers a variety of high quality continuing education sessions, eligible for European Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits. These include invited symposia, submitted symposia, an educational Core Curriculum and satellite symposia. Sessions will include information focused on topics in accordance with the theme of the Congress, “Clinical Aspects of Longevity”. The Conference will provide unique opportunities to exchange views and opinions, to interact with colleagues and to optimise your scientific network.

We will be updating 2012 annual conference information frequently in the coming months. So bookmark this page and check back often.
