Welcome Message

Dear Colleagues,

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the 13th

International Congress of the Egyptian Society of Pediatric

Allergy and Immunology (ESPAI 2017).

The 2017 event is blessed by the participation of three

distinguished international pioneers in allergy and

immunology in addition to the Egyptian experts in the field.

In conjunction with the congress, the World Allergy

Organization is holding a world allergy training school

(WATS) that is aimed to develop learning communities

appropriate to a specific regional context, which will help

build sustainable capacity in the field of allergy by

strengthening already existing knowledge and skills and

encouraging local experts to apply this knowledge to

further develop the specialty of allergy and to widen the

provision of patient care.

This brochure will provide you with detailed info of all you

need to know about the sessions and speakers. Meeting

local, regional and international colleagues will be

enjoyable indeed.

We look forward to a topmost elaborate congress that

would meet your expectations en-shaa-Allah

Sincerely,

Prof. Yehia El-Gamal
