Dear Members and Friends of WARMTH,
On behalf of the members of the Organizing Committee and the Scientific Committee of the World Association of Radiopharmaceutical and Molecular Therapy (WARMTH), I extend my cordial invitation to all of you to attend and participate in our 11th International Conference on Radiopharmaceutical Therapy (ICRT), which will take place during November 13-17, 2016 in Cochin (also known as Kochi), India. One full day sightseeing of the internationally acclaimed "Kerala backwaters" has also been planned for November 18 for you to carry the beautiful memories back home.
This ICRT meeting in Kerala, which is one of the sought-after tourist destinations and commonly referred to as "God's own country", promises to be a highlight for the theragnostic soul of nuclear medicine and will be based on the theme ''From Controversies to Consensus in Radiopharmaceutical Therapy". There will be plenary lectures devoted to nuclear medicine therapy as well as therapy-related diagnosis and follow-up. Distinguished speakers will share their experience & address the state-of-the-art and new developments. The sessions organized throughout the meeting will truly reflect WARMTH's mission with the goal of providing the best treatment and care for our patients.
These annual meetings organized by WARMTH are conceptually different from all other congresses. There is no registration fee for members of WARMTH and each participant covers nearly all of other costs connected with the participation by a single subsidized payment. We try to keep the expenses as low as reasonably possible so that professionals from all parts of the world and from all levels of nuclear medicine practice can attend. There are no parallel sessions so that all participants can take part in all scientific activities of the conference as well as in all social activities.
In addition, we make sure that our international friends get to taste the culture and hospitality of the country where the meeting is being carried out. During the present ICRT-2016, the participants will definitely appreciate the culture and hospitality of the Incredible India!
An important highlight of this conference will be the very First "Ajit Padhy Memorial Oration" to be delivered by one of the world-renowned professional belonging to the global nuclear medicine community. From now on, these orations will continue in all of our future ICRT meetings.
In addition to the scientific and educational activities that you will enjoy during your attendance, the local Organizing Committee will do its best to make you feel very welcome at Cochin with social and other activities.
