The primary ,and probably the only, aim of ASR is to create a new venue for communicating together, learning about new advances and techniques in the field of rhinology, and exchanging our ideas and experience.Membership of ASR is not limited to rhinologists practicing or residing in Alexandria. We do welcome new members from all over Egypt and we are sure they will enrich the society and the meeting.
