FORMS AND PRINTED MATTERS
Dear Colleagues,
The Austrian and Hungarian Societies of Pathology cordially invite you to attend our bi-national meeting in Sopron, Hungary.
The scientific and educational program of the congress is focusing on some timely topics.
The friendly atmosphere of Hungary and neighbouring Austria is well known, we expect some enjoyable social events, as well.
The meeting venue is located in the beautiful town of Sopron, very close to the Austrian border and the - region of Neusiedlersee.
The region on both sides of the border is well-known of its viniculture and outdoor activities like water sports or cycling. In 2001 the region became UNESCO World Heritage.
We hope we can welcome you in Sopron.
Yours sincerely
