Welcome message from the President of RSACI 2026
Dear colleagues,
It is a great honor and a real joy to address you, on behalf of the Romanian Society of Allergology and Clinical Immunology, a warm welcome to the National Conference of Allergology and Clinical Immunology, which will take place between April 17–19, in Bucharest, at the Crowne Plaza Hotel.
The theme of this edition – “EVOLUTION INTO INFINITY – The diagnostic and therapeutic path in allergic diseases from child to adult” – reflects the extraordinary dynamics of our specialty and the need for an integrated, continuous and personalized approach to the allergic patient, throughout life. Modern allergology is in constant evolution, and scientific progress challenges us to adapt, innovate and collaborate interdisciplinary.
The scientific program of the conference brings together prestigious experts, interactive sessions, applied debates and topical presentations, meant to offer both solid theoretical landmarks and practical solutions for day-to-day clinical challenges. We want this event to be not just a professional update space, but also an authentic framework for dialogue, exchange of experience and consolidation of our professional community.
Thank you for being part of this journey and we invite you to actively contribute to the success of the conference, through your presence, ideas and experience.
We wish you a pleasant stay in Bucharest and a truly memorable conference!
Assoc. Prof. Elena Camelia Berghea
President of the Romanian Society of Allergology and Clinical Immunology 2025-2027
