European Saliva Symposium 2008

8th European symposium on Saliva
May 14-17, 2008   Egmond aan Zee, the Netherlands
 
It is already for the fourth time that we hope to welcome you in Egmond aan Zee. The high scientific level, the enthusiasm of the participants, and the friendly atmosphere have encouraged us to organize this conference again. The symposium will deal with all different aspects of saliva and salivary glands. The objective of the symposium is to bring together scientists from all fields of salivary research, to promote scientific exchange and to give young scientists the opportunity to present their results. Key note lectures of invited speakers will be alternated with short presentations of participants.
Internationally famous scientists have already assigned their contribution to the conference.
