invitation
Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the organizing committee it is our great pleasure and a special privilege to invite you to participate in the 6th International Conference “Vitamin D – minimum, maximum, optimum” which will be held in Warsaw in September 22 – 23, 2023 year, under the auspices of the European Vitamin D Association (EVIDAS).
The conference serves as an international forum for the presentation and discussion of current basic and clinical research in the field of vitamin D. Organizing the subsequent edition of such conference on vitamin D, in lights of inflation, war in Ukraine and post COVID world, seems to be a challenge. On the other hand, it is recognized that vitamin D deficiency is a global health problem with potential negative consequences on health, welfare and morbidity during growth and adulthood, and therefore influencing health care services worldwide. Thus, due to mutually exclusive conclusions, it is essential to discuss vividly, and share scientific reports and guidelines as well as evidence demonstrating both the health benefits and lack of it in relation to human health.
We believe that the scientific program of the 6th conference “Vitamin D – minimum, maximum, optimum” with the confirmed attendance of leading experts in the area and outstanding speakers from many European countries, and the United States will guarantee a high quality of this meeting. The diversity and multidisciplinary nature of the conference offers a unique opportunity to interact with specialists from different fields of science, share innovative opinions, address intriguing questions resolving major issues, and to discuss your scientific developments and research experiences. We look forward to welcoming you in Warsaw for the 6th International Conference „Vitamin D – minimum, maximum, optimum”, SEPTEMBER 22 – 23, 2023.
On behalf of the Organizing and the Scientific Committees,
Paweł Płudowski
