WELCOME MESSAGE
Dear colleagues,
It is a great pleasure and honor to invite you at the 2025 National Conference of the Romanian Society of Allergology and Clinical Immunology (RSACI), “Allergy Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment: Connecting the Dots”, to be held on May 15 – 17, 2025 in Bucharest.
The conference will focus on the impact of pathogenetic and socio-economic factors on allergic diseases and discussing a more precise approach to prevention, diagnosis and management of allergic diseases incorporating novel concepts such as personalized care, precision immunology and environmental science. RSACI thus reiterates its commitment to uncover the complexity of factors contributing to the onset and evolution of allergic diseases, by bringing together research and practice in the field of allergy, asthma and clinical immunology.
The wealth of scientific data, as well as new and emerging concepts in Allergology and Clinical Immunology, and related fields empowers us to develop new methods and instruments to enhance patient outcomes. Therefore, all the experiences that will be shared during the conference will deepen our understanding of science behind clinical decisions.
Our scientific programme reached a peak this year by continuing the trend set at the very beginning of RSACI, that of opening to the international scientific community and hence welcoming as keynote speakers world-renowned specialists. This is why we are able to offer a solid conference program with outstanding researchers from Romania and abroad who will talk in well-balanced scientific sessions and symposia that cover the most pertinent topics in allergy and immunology.
I am delighted to welcome you again in 2025 to learn from and share with each other in the delightful setting offered by Bucharest, a city full of life and rich in culture, which we hope you will take time to discover.
Prof. Carmen Panaitescu
RSACI President
