Keynote / Plenary Lectures
In the plenary session of our conference, we focus on the most pressing health science issues of the 21st century. Renowned experts will share their insights, seeking answers through their work to the rise of artificial intelligence, the health impacts of climate change, and the addictive mechanisms triggered by social media. Their lectures bridge the gap between theoretical research and clinical practice—from bench to bedside—providing a foundation for the professional dialogue of the thematic sessions and the innovative solutions of the future.
