Progress In Liver Diseases

Lendava, Slovenia.

Dear Collegues,

 

On the behalf of the International Medical Association for Experimental and Clinical Research it is a geat pleasure and honour for me to invite you to the Conference Progress In Liver Diseases in Lendava, Slovenia. The aim of this conference is to give a special opportunity of physicians, hepatologists and  surgents, as well as liver scientists in the region of Central and Eastern Europe to meet each other for discussing the new results in the field of liver diseases.

 

Lendava is a small town with about 5.000 inhabitants, but it represents the interweaving of advantageous natural and cultural features. The Pannonian Plain flows picturesquely into the Lendava hills. The climate is gentle; here we can enjoy the cultural offer of the 800-year-old town of Lendava with its rich history at the meeting point of Slovenia, Austria, and Hungary. The ethnically diverse surrounding area also means a multitude of folk traditions, ethnological attractions, and gourmand specialties. Last but not least, the large number of foreign guests at the Terme Lendava health resort and tourist center creates an atmosphere where very diverse needs and desires meet a friendly reception.
