46th Annual ESDR Meeting

Dear colleagues and friends,

It is a great pleasure and privilege to welcome you to the 46th Annual Meeting of the European Society for Dermatological Research, which will be held in Munich, Germany from 7-10 September 2016.

Munich, the capital of Bavaria, the third largest city of Germany, is known to have a big heart welcoming its visitors from all over the world. It is a city of science and tradition, of economics, engineering, and life style. The Munich airport is one of the largest in Europe and is connected to most international travel hubs. The city offers a great range of hotel accommodations within a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

As the venue for the ESDR 2016 Meeting we have selected the campus of the TUM (Technical University of Munich) in Garching, which combines a stylish modern architecture with the spirit of an academic environment. The campus in the north of Munich is well connected to the city center by subway U6 and allows participants to stay in the middle of an exciting city with the best connectivity to the venue site.

Based on the exciting developments in cutaneous biology and skin disease research, the ESDR together with the local organizing committee followed the lines of its development and put together a program offering cutting edge science and the best opportunities to interact. We trust that the ESDR in Munich will be enthusing both scientifically and personally, ideal to start new collaborations and make new friends.

We are looking forward to welcome you all in Munich, to spend exciting days with you, and to advance the success story of ESDR meetings.
