X MIPS Annual Meeting welcome messages
MIPS PRESIDENT WELCOME MESSAGE
Dear MIPS Family, It gives me great pleasure, as the President, to invite you to the TENTH MIPS Annual meeting, MIPS 2025. This year we will go to the beautiful city of Istanbul, Turkey's economic, cultural and historic capital. The meeting will be held on 20-22 November 2025. The conference venue will be the Windsor Hotel & Conference Centre. Congratulations to our Host Chair: Professor Fulya Dokmeci and Co-Chair: Dr. Esra Cetinkaya, whom I am sure, will organize an excellent meeting to build on the outstanding success of our previous meetings. The scientific programme will be granted CME credits by the EACCME, and the conference proceedings will be published in Urogynecolgy, the official journal of the American Urogynecologic Society (AUGS). The topics include the most recent advances in female and male pelvic floor medicine with multi-disciplinary sessions tailored to health care provider’s educational needs and training priorities as well as patient care in Mediterranean countries. This year, we will also hold parallel workshops of the Turkish Continence Society that would be very interesting to our Turkish colleagues. We are currently working on the final scientific programme and hope to publish the first announcement by the fourth week of February on the MIPS website. See you all in Istanbul in November 2025! Diaa Rizk MIPS President
