Online
Dear Colleagues,
We are excited to welcome you to the 2022 General Assembly of the European Society of Medicine, which will take place on August 4-6, 2022.
The ESMED General Assembly is an assembly like no other: cutting-edge research, world-renowned speakers, and the opportunity to exchange knowledge with scientists from across the globe. Our goal is to deliver an exceptional scientific program which inspires and challenges participants to reach their next great discovery.
As in previous years, the 2022 General Assembly will be a truly international meeting. In 2021 we welcomed delegates from 30 countries within and beyond Europe, bringing together some of the greatest minds to present new ideas and perspectives in an unforgettable three-day experience. In addition to sharing the latest developments in medicine, we will be continuing our tradition of the assembly serving as an opportunity to shape public health policy and tackle major challenges in medicine.
On behalf of the society’s board, we invite you to reserve your place for the 2022 ESMED General Assembly and extend you our warmest welcome to join us.

Sessions
Next Generation Neuroscience
New discoveries within the Neuroscience field are constantly shaping our understanding of the brain and nervous system. The 2022 ESMED General Assembly will have an emphasis on the following Neuroscience topics:
- Neurodegenerative Disease
- Glioblastoma
- Epilepsy
- Brain Imaging
Spotlight on Pharmacology
Recent developments in the field of Pharmacology have the potential to bring about change of great importance which will affect diagnosis, treatment, and our understanding of disease. Pharmacogenetics is leading the way for more effective treatment for a wide range of health problems, including cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer disease, cancer, HIV/AIDS, and asthma.
The 2022 ESMED General assembly will examine several Pharmacology innovations including nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems, pharmacokinetics, pharmacogenomics, and more.
Chaired by Dr. Michael Beck, University of Mainz.
Global Public Health
The Coronavirus pandemic has moved public health into the spotlight on an unprecedented scale. Preventing disease requires organized efforts and evidence-based policy options. Analyzing the threats to the health of a population is a difficult challenge which needs multidisciplinary input and careful consideration of the facts. At ESMED Congress 2022 leading public health experts will talk about how we can reduce the global burden of disease and prevent the next pandemic.
Trends in Oncology
Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, and is responsible for approximately 10 million deaths annually. ESMED hopes to reduce the burden of cancer by helping to shape healthcare policy in three key areas: Prevention strategies, Early detection, and Treatment.
Exploring Genetics & Genomics
There have been enormous advancements in the field of Genetics during the last decade which have widespread implications across virtually all diseases. Genome editing has the ability to revolutionize medicine, but also poses many challenges. The 2022 ESMED General Assembly will explore the latest innovations in genetics and genomics, with the goal of encouraging a multidisciplinary approach to genetics research.
Advancements in Cardiology
Cardiovascular disease causes 3.9 million deaths in Europe each year. Risk factors such as obesity and diabetes have increased in recent years, resulting in the need for new approaches to reducing the burden of cardiovascular disease. The 2022 ESMED General Assembly aims to advance cardiovascular knowledge in three key areas: Prevention strategies, Early detection, and Treatment.
Chaired by David Celermajer, University of Sydney
Trends in Surgery
Technology has transformed the field of Surgery and makes it possible to overcome countless challenges. As optical imaging, robotics and other high-tech advances contribute to greater precision and less invasive surgical techniques, the field is optimized to improve surgical outcomes by a significant measure in the near future. The 2022 ESMED General Assembly will showcase the latest surgical innovations.
Advancing Knowledge in Diabetes
The prevalence of Diabetes in Europe has grown to an alarming 10% of adults. Breakthroughs in Diabetes care are urgently needed. The 2022 ESMED General Assembly will examine the latest technologies and ideas for Diabetes care.
Nutrition & Food Science
The fields of Nutrition and Food Science experience rapid change as new technologies become available. The 2022 ESMED General Assembly aims to advance nutrition knowledge be exploring the latest innovation in the field.

Featured Speakers
Christopher Rudd
University of Montreal
Professor Rudd’s research focuses on signal transduction pathways in T lymphocytes and how these pathways control immune functions. His lab has discovered the CD4 and CD8-p56lck complexes, the initiators of phosphorylation and activation cascade in T lymphocytes. His most recent interest has been in the pathways that control T cell adhesion and lymphocytes in lymph nodes and the mechanisms by which co-receptors such as CD28 and CTLA-4 control immunity. He identified serine / threonine kinase glycogen synthase kinase (GSK-3) as a central regulator of the expression of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) on T cells and showed the applicability of small inhibitors molecules of GSK-3 in the negative regulation of PD-1 for the clearance of viral infections. His research helps to uncover the signaling events that control the adaptive immune response and help develop therapeutics for the treatment of infection, autoimmunity and cancer.
