The Spanish Society of Senology and Breast Disease (SESPM), founded in 1980, has
nowadays a membership of nearly one thousand affiliates. It is one of the most active
members of SIS and it shares the same objectives. It has a web site and a scientific journal
which are its way of expression. Many results from national clinic and basic research are
published there. In this sense both Societies develop Training Courses, Symposiums, and
Establishment of Consensus for the different specialists that participate in those institutions,
and collaborate in different publications about breast health and its pathology.
One of the most significant activities is the performance of Congresses, where the newest
information and the last advances in Senology, are presented in a multidisciplinary
approach.
This event will inform the attendees of the latest advances in diagnosis,
treatment and research of breast diseases. The most prestigious specialists
at National and International level will meet here.
Valencia, a bi-millennial city where many cultures still remain, has an open
and relaxing nature that makes for a warm welcome amongst its people. It is
a modern, dynamic and innovative city, with an important logistics centre and
excellent communications.
With its varied cultural and architectural fields, it’s possible to admire
the traces of different civilizations and moments. Complementing this, are
superb hotel, restaurant, and convention facilities. It’s important to highlight
the support that the institutions of the City Hall and the Generalitat Valenciana
give for different activities.
