Dear Professor,
On behalf of the Symposium Organizing Committees, it gives us great pleasure to
invite you and all the teachers and students of your Department to participate in the
coming XXII International Symposium on Morphological Sciences to be held in São
Paulo, Brazil from February 12 to 16, 2012. The central theme of this edition is
"Morphology – From the Lab to the Bedside" with the aim of exploring the important
applications of this biological field for nowadays health care and science development.
Moreover, in this twenty-second edition, there will be special participations of the
Federative International Program for Anatomical Terminology (FIPAT) of the
International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA), Ibero-Latinamerican
Symposium of Anatomical Terminology (SILAT) of the Pan-American Association of
Anatomy (APA) and World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (WAVA).
In closing, we would be pleased and honored if you would attend the meeting and
help us in advertising this symposium among your friends and colleagues. Receive our
best wishes.
Organizing Committee
Scientific Program
The scientific programme of the XXII ISMS is organized according to 4 main topics
related to Morphology: Science, Clinical Research, Education and Publication.
In the early mornings, there will be plenary lectures with outstanding professionals
talking about relevant issues related to those main topics. After the plenary lectures, a
thematic “Cutting-Edge” Mini-Symposium is going to take place each day. In the
“Cutting-Edge Symposium” of Advances in the Clinical Setting, experts in different
clinical specialties are going to discuss relevant issues and highlight the role of the
Morphological Sciences in their research.
During the afternoons, there will be parallel scientific sessions about important
questions regarding science, education and anatomical issues. Moreover, the VII
Ibero-Latinamerican Symposium on Anatomical Terminology (SILAT) is also going to
take place.
In the last day, there is going to have a session called “What we have learned, what
we still have to know?” when some conclusions of the meeting are going to be
presented and discussed with the audience.
