Welcome back to top
Dear friends and colleagues,
During recent years there have been major advances in understanding pathogenetic factors in multifactorial age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The recent revolution in genetic, and molecular biological and other -omics analyses as well as imaging and AI-based analyses has contributed significantly to our understanding of AMD. However, many open questions are still to be addressed.
We are approaching an era of new targets for therapy based on better differentiation, refined phenotyping and predictive markers of age-related macular disease.
Four years after the last international Baden-Baden AMD meeting it appears timely to review novel ideas and emerging concepts. We would like to invite you to beautiful Baden-Baden in the heart of the Blackwood Forest to the
VIII. International Symposium on Age-related Macular Degeneration
- Understanding pathogenetic mechanisms -
We invite you today to submit an abstract for a paper or rapid fire presentation via www.amd2023.org
Deadline for submission is April 15th, 2023.
We look very much forward to welcoming you in Baden-Baden.
