INVITATION

Dear colleagues and friends,

We have been honoured with the privilege of holding the XL Inner Ear Biology at Granada from September 7th to 10th 2003. Over the last 40 years, IEB meetings have been the state of the art in inner ear research and their contributions have been the basis of current progress in many different fields of Otology and Audiology. We invite you to join us because we are sure this will be a “very special meeting” for a number of reasons. Granada is an unique city, with an outstanding cultural and monumental heritage which now welcomes you all. This is also a time when special circumstances occur. As you can see in the program, some of the pioneers in the filed will attend and share their knowledge with us. This time is also an opportunity for a turning point in these meetings; a moment to re-integrate basic and clinical fields as in the past. An opportunity to increase the momentum to develop this field during the next decade. The participants would be the most appropriate group to carry out the necessary work and enjoy these moments. We will do our best , and we will be filled with joy if this aim becomes a reality.

Rafael Urquiza & Miguel Ciges
