Dear colleagues and friends,

It is our pleasure to invite you to the 7th Congress of the International Society of Gender Medicine and to the International Congress of Gender Medicine of GIM (Institute of Gender in Medicine) at Charite that are held in close cooperation, from September, 20-21 and 22-23, 2015, in Berlin, Germany.

These four days will provide a platform for physicians, scientists and other professionals from a large variety of disciplines who are interested in the science of gender and sex specific medicine. The purpose of the IGM congress is to discuss gender and sex specific medicine in an international context by promoting excellent research in basic sciences, clinical medicine and public health. The GIM congress has the same goals but will also focus on the communication between junior and senior researchers in gender medicine. Both will offer the best science as well as ample possibilities for exchange and discuss the present options to include gender into research, clinical medicine and public health.

An outstanding scientific program will feature cutting edge state-of-science lectures, will offer opportunities to discuss your findings and follow novel developments in the field. Finally, we will give you an impression of the exciting city of Berlin.

We look forward to welcoming you to the beautiful city of Berlin.

Hoping to welcome you there!

Vera Regitz-Zagrosek,  Congress President and Director of the Institute for Gender in Medicine at Charité Berlin.

Langenbeck-Virchow-Haus

The goal of the Berlin Medical Association and the German Surgery Association in building the Langenbeck Virchow House in 1913 was “to promote scientific efforts across the entire field of medicine, to build up a relationship of friendly cooperation among members and to safeguard the interests of the medical profession" as well as "to unite the surgical workforce in face of the constantly expanding scope of scientific endeavour, to facilitate the exchange of ideas through personal intercourse and to foster cooperative activity".

With the restoration complete, the auditorium is now resplendent in its former glory, and, together with further seminar rooms, represents an ideal location for training events and congresses. This function is complemented by the Aesculap Academy, which is newly installed in the building.

During the past decade we have witnessed the emergence of Gender Medicine as a new perspective from which we look at the fundamental differences between men and women as far as physiology and pathophysiology are concerned and as an undeniable and necessary shift of paradigms. This new understanding transcends boundaries of medical disciplines and is going to re-shape the tools how we teach and apply modern medicine for the benefit of women and men alike.

The 7th International Congress on Gender Medicine will provide the necessary platform on which eminent scholars from many medical disciplines will meet in order to present the state of the art of the gender aspect in their respective disciplines. The latest research will be discussed and debates on crucial topics will be conducted by eminent clinicians and scientists.

The program will be complemented with a professional exhibition, offering companies and agencies a unique opportunity to take an active part in this new and exciting endeavor, to be exposed and to collaborate with decision makers in many medical disciplines.
