INVITATION


Dear Colleagues,

As the Digital Health Project Group of the Turkish Society of Cardiology, we are pleased to inform you that our very first “National Digital Health and Innovation Symposium” will be held online on June 4-5, 2022.

The development of medicine brings about new processes accompanied by digitalized and technology-integrated practices, as well as diagnosis and treatment methods. It will undoubtedly be very beneficial for us all to keep up with all these innovations in the field of health on a global scale, and to discuss them with expert persons and institution representatives.

Our aim is to offer you a scientific program, which will cover a variety of topics such as artificial intelligence practices in health and cardiology, an integral part of our efforts today and in the future, benefits of innovation, and Turkey’s digital health infrastructure.

Planned with extraordinary topics and content differing from the scientific events we regularly attend, the “National Health and Innovation Symposium” will be an opportunity for us to virtually get together with the participation of valuable and competent national and international academics and bureaucrats.

It would please us greatly to meet with you and shape the future together.

Best regards,

Prof. Vedat Aytekin, MD
TSC President
Prof. Nurgül Keser, MD
President of TSC Digital Health Project Group
