From 22 to 25 September 2010, we are organizing the 14th Congress of the ENEA in Liège,

Belgium. We hope to see many of you here on this occasion.

 

Helped by an inventive and dynamic Scientific Committee (under the chairmanship of Professor

Annamaria Colao), we have endeavored to build a modern and attractive program that will allow us

to both grasp the most advanced developments in neuro-endocrinology, while discovering

modern approaches to diseases that we encounter every day.

 

During the 6 plenary lectures and 42 planned conference symposia, we have chosen to link data from research and clinical applications. We wanted to get up- close to the clinician in preparing 16 meet- the-professor sessions on highly interesting current topics.

 

We would like to invite you to submit your research work as abstracts for the meeting. Accepted abstracts will be published.

 

Your abstracts will be available on the website of the Congress from the first day of the Congress (www.enea2010.org). The best oral and best poster communications (at the basic and clinical levels) will be awarded a prize.

 

Beyond the scientific interest, I must emphasize to you that you take the time to visit the city of Liège. Liège is a historic town, the ancient capital of the Principality of Liège. The city has a rich cultural life, with many monuments and museums, the Philharmonic Orchestra and the Royal Opera. Liège is located on the Meuse, where the river widens and splits into several channels.

 

Cultural events are planned in the downtown at walking distance from the Congress Center. Liège is also a noted gastronomic hub. Besides the many restaurants, do not miss the pubs, some of which offer more than 1000 different varieties of beer. In addition, the Belgian gastronomic culture has always accommodated good wines of all origins.

 

Liège is located in the heart of Europe and recently the new Guillemins railway station has opened. This notable architectural work from the Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, is ranked among the finest modern constructions in the world. We have chosen this symbol of modernity to illustrate our ENEA Congress in Liège, as this is an eminently accessible city. Liège can be reached readily by train (2 hours from Paris, 1 hour from Cologne, 1 hour from Brussels, 2 hours from Frankfurt).

 

Finally, I would like to emphasize the legendary hospitality of the people of Liège and its festive spirit.

Looking forward to welcoming you soon
