Dear Participants,
We are happy to organize the 16th Diczfalusy Award Lecture (DAL) symposium in Szeged in this Fall. It is a great pleasure to welcome you.
On behalf of the Organizing Committee it is our pleasure to invite you to participate in the next Diczfalusy Symposium. After considering several aspects, we have decided that the event will take place in Szeged between 19‐21 September 2024. This event will follow in time 34th ISUOG World Congress on Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology (https://www.isuog.org/events/isuog‐world‐congress‐2024.html), which will be held on 15‐18 September in Budapest, Hungary.
We plan to ensure that scientific programs do not overlap and that all interested parties have the opportunity to participate in these events. We would like the Foundation's annual conference to be as widely publicised as possible for faculty and residents of partner universities.
The scientific focus of the Szeged conference is beginning to emerge. In agreement with the organizers, our main messages will be around the following themes:
1. State of in vitro fertilization and main research activities/scientific achievements in the region.
2. Achievements and challenges of reproductive health education among teenagers
3. Status of medical education and specialisation
4. How can AI support more effective reproductive health care?
5. Hands-on training in microsurgery
I would like to draw your and your colleagues' attention to the conference and stress that we would very much welcome speakers/presentations from your university on the topics indicated and, of course, other new scientific results. The Diczfalusy symposium is traditionally low cost, with a projected DAL 16 co‐payment of between 150‐250 Euro, excluding accommodation costs.
Best wishes,
Prof. Dr. Ferenc Bari PhD DsC
president of the Foundation
