Welcome Message
from President of TAOMS
Dear Colleagues
Greetings!
With great honor and pleasure, I’m privileged to welcome all
delegates abroad and domestic to the 30th Annual Academic Congress
of Taiwanese Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons be held on March
10~11,2018 at the magnificent International Convention Center of Kaohsiung
Medical University.
As you all known, English has been the official language of Taiwanese
Congress on Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery back in 2013, which was quite a
dramatic progress and formulated an attraction to lure more and more participants
from countries nearby. In this particular congress, we’re expecting
distinguished scholars, colleagues, friends and brothers from Afghanistan,
China, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore,
Thailand and the hosting nation Taiwan, almost reaching the scale of a mini-ACOMS.
Regarding the main theme of this conference “Rejuvenation”, it is not
only applicable to several topics and sessions of our routine scientific
programs delivered by renowned international speakers but also for the 1st
time we’ve organized the Youth Forum indicating a new policy
of promotion and encouragement of our young promising members to be on the
stage and share their refreshing ideas with all of us. Let’s just enjoy the
fantastic lectures by young surgeons from JSOMS, KAOMS, PCOMS and TAOMS. At the
end, please don’t hesitate to give them a big round applause.
To all members of the hardworking scientific and organizing committee,
I would like to express the deepest gratitude, in particular Prof.
Elliot S. CHENG .
To our generous sponsors and on-site exhibitors of this conference,
your time and contributions are extremely appreciated.
To all registered foreign and domestic delegates, I’m sure you’ll be
able to feel the enthusiasm of the hosting Kaohsiung Medical University,
especially from the team led by congress chair Prof. Edward C. KO and
will also remember the heartwarming atmosphere of Southern Taiwan. So, thank
you very much for the timeless support to Taiwanese Association of Oral and
Maxillofacial Surgeons.
Last but not the least, wishing each and every one of you a fruitful
journey with unforgettable joyfulness during the entire well organized academic
and social events.
Michael Yuanchien CHEN, President of TAOMS
