Dear Friends and Colleagues,

The Congress of the European Association of Dermato-Oncology (EADO) is now a very well established scientific meeting, and has participants not only from Europe, but from all continents of the world. It is the largest congress in dermato-oncology and there are no competing congresses in this field.

The 18th EADO Congresswill be hosted in the amazing city of Seville, Spain and will be a hybrid event comprising both an in-person conference and a virtual conference. We believe it will be one of the first congresses where face-to-face meetings will once again be possible.

Each EADO congress brings with it a special area of emphasis and Seville has a clinical focus on both the early diagnosis of skin cancer and dermatosurgery as part of the integral approach to skin cancer patients. Consequently, the promising therapeutic landscape that the increasingly conservative surgery and the latest breakthroughs in immunotherapy and targeted therapy bring to skin cancer patients will be comprehensively discussed in Seville, with also special attention to dermoscopy and other diagnostic technologies.

Compared to previous congresses, there is a balanced offering of topics on melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer.

The best experts worldwide have been invited as speakers and will offer you the opportunity to gain a comprehensive insight into all areas of dermato-oncology.

Some cities blast you away, others slowly win you over. Seville, the host city, disarms and seduces you. Its historic center, lorded over by a colossal Gothic cathedral, is an intoxicating mix of resplendent Mudéjar palaces, baroque churches and winding medieval lanes. Flamenco clubs keep the intimacy and intensity of this centuries-old tradition alive whilst aristocratic mansions recall the city’s past as a showcase Moorish capital. But while history reverberates all around, Seville is as much about the here and now as the past. It is about enjoying warm afternoons and evenings eating tapas in a buzzing plaza.

Join us at the 18th EADO Congress! We are convinced we will all enjoy this opportunity to gain the highest scientific knowledge in the field, surrounded by the most colorful Spring ever, Spring in Seville.

Warmest regards,

Prof. Dr. David Moreno-Ramírez                                   Prof. Dr. Claus Garbe
