Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to welcome you to participate in the next Mediterranean and Gulf Urological Forum (MGUF) Annual Conference which will be held from June 10-12, 2015 in Athens, Greece in collaboration with Hellenic Urological Association.
Today, MGUF is without doubt one of largest and most important Societies for Urologists in the Middle East. Our team will continue the tradition and exert great efforts to ensure the impending Meeting vent a fabulous activities, both in terms of the scientific programs and social activities.
In MGUF Annual Conference 2015, we aim to showcase the most cutting edge knowledge and technology not only in urology but also in other related specialties (nephrology, radiology, medical oncology, reconstructive and pediatric surgery and gynecology).
Athens is the historic capital of Europe as it has been inhabited since the Neolithic Era. Through the course of its long, fascinating history, it reached its zenith in the 5th century B.C. (the "Golden Age of Pericles"), a period when its values and its culture crossed the geographical borders of the city and spread worldwide. Athens is one of the most beautiful and charming capitals in Europe that fascinates its visitors all year long.
Before closing, we would like to thank each of you for attending our last conference and bringing your updated technology to our gathering. You, as organization leaders, have the vision, the ability and the experience to help us pave our way into the future. You are truly our greatest asset today and tomorrow, and we could not accomplish what we do without your support and leadership. Throughout the next Conference, I ask you to stay engaged.
Looking forward to meet you in the next MGUF meetings. With open arms and warm regards, we welcome you all to Athens!
