On behalf of the Latin American Thyroid Society (LATS) we are honored to host the 17th International Thyroid Congress (ITC), which will be held in the delightful city of Rio de Janeiro from June 18th to 22nd, 2025.
The ITC is co-sponsored by the American Thyroid Association (ATA), the European Thyroid Association (ETA), the Asia-Oceania Thyroid Association (AOTA), and the LATS. Held every five years, each edition of the ITC is hosted by one of these sister societies on a rotational basis. This event marks the third occasion in Latin America, following the successful gatherings in São Paulo (9th edition) and Buenos Aires (13th edition).
The ITC Program Organizing Committee (POC) , chaired by the host society, created an agenda featuring inspiring plenaries, insightful panel discussions, and valuable networking sessions. The comprehensive program promises to deepen your understanding of the latest advancements in thyroid research and treatment.
Anticipating an attendance of over 3,000 dedicated scientists and experts in the field of thyroid, we invite you to join us and contribute to this vibrant exchange of knowledge and ideas. Your participation is not only valued but essential to the success of the congress.
Nestled amidst the rich cultural heritage of Rio de Janeiro, this city beckons with an irresistible vitality, pulsating at every corner. Surrounded by numerous natural wonders waiting to be explored, Rio boasts renewed attractions including the iconic Christ the Redeemer towering majestically atop Corcovado Mountain, the peaceful Botanical Garden, and the avant-garde Museum of Tomorrow. Moreover, Rio's legendary beaches, such as the charming Ipanema Beach and the world-famous Copacabana, invite visitors to immerse themselves in the peacefulness and energy of the ocean waves, extending all the way through its iconic promenade.
We are looking forward to welcoming you and your family to Rio de Janeiro for what promises to be a stimulating and productive meeting. Thank you for considering our invitation, and we hope to see you there.
