I am honored to invite all colleagues to Hannover, from the 16th to the 19th September 2015. I would like to thank you for having supported our and Germany’s candidacy! It is a great honor for me personally and for the German Burns Society (DGV) to host this prestigious and renowned congress.

The congress serves to disperse the most current information in science of burns to experts in European and other foreign countries. The EBA congress group, the DGV, the local congress team and me are looking forward to organize a challenging and interesting program.
