It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the 36th National Conference of the Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology. As the Organising Chairman, I am thrilled to share this platform where we connect, collaborate, and celebrate advancements in the ever-evolving field of Oral Medicine and Radiology.

Navi Mumbai, renowned for its well-planned urban design and modern infrastructure, is recognized as the third cleanest city in India. The city features a state-of-the-art software park and is often called the "Garden City" due to its extensive green zones. Excellent connectivity by rail and road links Navi Mumbai seamlessly with Mumbai and other suburban areas, ensuring convenient and comfortable travel.

This year's conference, themed “Perception to Perfection – Innovating a new era in Oral Medicine and Radiology, is a testament to our commitment to fostering excellence in dental education, research, and clinical practice. We are bringing together renowned experts, pioneering researchers, and passionate practitioners from around the globe to exchange ideas and showcase the latest innovations that shape the future of oral healthcare.

We are delighted to invite you the “6th Inflammatory Skin Disease Summit: The Translational Revolution”, a unique and dynamic symposium, being held in The New York Academy of Medicine, New York, USA, on November 12-15, 2025.

Over the last few decades, biomedical research has unravelled a plethora of pathophysiological steps putatively important for human disease development. But it was only in the last few years that a broader translation from basic research efforts to clinical medicine has indeed occurred. This was largely made possible by the close cooperation of basic researchers and clinical investigators, aiming at the development of truly effective therapeutics. Inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, alopecia areata and vitiligo serve as an example of this successful bench-to-bedside approach. Currently, more and more therapies are approved as a result of this scientific approach, and many more are on their way.

Nevertheless, a stand-alone meeting in which inflammatory skin diseases and the translational revolution that we are currently experiencing take center stage has been lacking. After five very successful meetings in Vienna and in New York City in 2014, 2016, 2018, 2021 and 2023 we have again taken upon the task of organizing such an important in-person meeting, in order to continue this path of therapeutic revolution and extend to other inflammatory skin diseases. We want to discuss new concepts and new developments in the field of inflammatory skin diseases and to devise and explore new therapeutic strategies. For the last meetings, we had been able to attract true leaders in their fields, with more than 600 participants from all over the world. We have now established this conference on every two-year basis, with the next meeting taking place in New York in 2025.

Below are a few reasons why you should participate at this upcoming Summit:

Learn about the latest developments for the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases. The exhibit hall will serve as a forum to lean about individual therapeutic compounds, and to critically discuss their value (efficacy, safety) to key representatives of the scientific community. Interact & network with peers

We look forward to your participation at the 6th Inflammatory Skin Disease Summit in New York.

This edition of the Digital Dentistry Society Global Congress 2025 – the world’s largest scientific event among the digital dentistry community – will feature leading clinical experts and researchers who will discuss the most innovative digital technologies and established clinical procedures.

A Message from the Conference Presidents

On behalf of the organizing committee, it is our utmost pleasure to extend a warm and enthusiastic welcome to all potential participants of the 15th International Facial Nerve Symposium, which will be held in the beautiful city of Madrid in September 24-27th 2025 (IFNS 2025).

We are thrilled to announce that this upcoming symposium, supported by the Sir Charles Bell Society, promises to be a momentous gathering of leading experts, researchers, and professionals in the field of the facial nerve.

IFNS 2025 is a landmark event that will provide an exceptional platform for deepening our understanding of facial nerve disorders, diagnosis, and treatment modalities. Over four days, we will cover a wide range of topics related to facial paralysis, from fundamental principles to cutting-edge advancements. The conference program will feature selected presentations and posters, alongside didactic lectures, expert panels, and surgical and non-surgical workshops.

Our dedicated organizing committee is working tirelessly to ensure that your experience at IFNS 2025 surpasses all expectations. We aim to create a meticulously organized event, fostering networking opportunities, promoting new collaborations, and facilitating lasting memories. The invaluable expertise of the Facial Paralysis Unit at La Paz University Hospital in Madrid, with 23 years of experience in treating complex cases, plays a pivotal role in shaping this event.

Beyond the intellectually stimulating sessions, we encourage you to immerse yourself in the vibrant culture and rich heritage of Madrid. The city's historical landmarks, art, cuisine, and warm hospitality promise an unforgettable experience.

Thank you for considering our invitation. We look forward to welcoming you to Madrid and creating a symposium that will not only contribute to advancements in our field but also create lifelong connections and friendships.

Warm regards,
