WELCOME

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, it gives us great pleasure to invite you to participate in the XIX. Annual Meeting of the Mediterranean Society for Reproductive Medicine in conjunction with the XI. Society of Reproductive Medicine and Surgery Congress and OVIN 2024 Contemporary Approaches in Ovulation Induction and Infertility Symposium, which will take place at the Nirvana Cosmopolitan Hotel & Congress Center in Antalya, Türkiye on October 30^st – November 3^rd, 2024.

Reproductive Medicine, Assisted Reproductive Technologies, Reproductive Genetics and Surgery are witnessing a significant expansion both clinically and in basic research. Obviously they will continue to undergo innovative and revolutionary changes in the forthcoming years, which may change our understanding and practice in the diagnosis and treatment of infertile couples. The information which will be accumulated in the near future especially in the field of stem cell research, molecular reproduction and human genetics may help our profession to be able to help more couples to have healthy babies.

Our societies are dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of infertility and reproductive health including the promotion of science and research in all aspects of reproductive medicine and assisted reproductive technologies and human genetics, the understanding of evidence-based practices between clinicians and the enhancement of communication between scientists interested in these subjects worldwide.

Antalya, located on the southern coastline of Turkish Riviera, is one of the earliest settlement areas of Anatolia. Its magnificent theatres, temples and ruins of ancient cities reflect the historical richness. Antalya region has been inhabited by the Lykians, Romans, Greek, and the Turks. There are several ancient cities that were preserved in excellent condition up to our time. Antalya, one of the most popular holiday destinations on the Mediterranean, is a lively city with a rich historical heritage and attracts millions of tourists every year.

The elaborate program being organized by the Scientific Committee, the colourful and exciting social activities coupled with the breath-taking panorama and exotic surroundings of Antalya will make this conjoint meeting a rewarding educational, social and travel experience.
