Congres Naţional de Gastroenterologie, 13-15 Mai 2021
al Hepatologie şi Endoscopie Digestivă Mamaia

Stimaţi Colegi,
Constanţa este pentru a treia oară gazda celui mai important eveniment ştiinţific
anual de gastroenterologie: Al 40-lea Congres Naţional de Gastroenterologie,
Hepatologie şi Endoscopie Digestivă.

Pentru noi, pentru Facultatea de Medicină a Universităţii Ovidius din Constanţa

este o onoare şi, totodată, o mare responsabilitate.

Oraş la ţărmul Mării Negre, Constanţa se caracterizează în special prin diversitate

multietnică şi culturală, elemente ce au stat la baza unei culturi legată de mare,
soare, valuri şi corăbii depărtându-se în zare.

De aceasta dată, însă, oraşul poetului exilat la ţărmul mării, Ovidiu, este mândru
să organizeze cel mai important meeting național al medicilor, cercetătorilor în
domeniile gastroenterologiei, hepatologiei, ecografiei și endoscopiei digestive.

Comitetul Științific a dezvoltat un program ce cuprinde o mare diversitate de

teme pentru a încorpora toate categoriile educaționale interesante pentru care
congresul național este cunoscut.

Cei mai importanţi specialişti gastroenterologi din ţară şi invitaţii lor din
străinatate vor conferenția într-o manifestare ce se anunţă de înalt nivel ştiinţific,
cu dezbateri şi controverse fervente pe teme de actualitate.

Aceasta este prima dată când evenimentul va avea loc într-un format hibrid, în
care participarea fizică în limitele impuse de pandemia COVID se va îmbina cu
formatul online deja cunoscut.

Asigurați-vă că vă participați fizic sau online pentru a fi la curent cu noutățile la

fiecare pas. Participarea dumneavoastră în număr cât mai mare şi implicarea
directă în succesul ştiinţific al evenimentului este dorinţa noastră cea mai
arzătoare.

Așteptăm cu nerăbdare să ne revedem la Mamaia, Constanţa în Mai 2021!
