Urgent Notice: IOF World Congress on Osteoporosis has been cancelled
It is with great regret that the IOF announces the cancellation of the IOF World Congress on Osteoporosis in Bangkok. As you know, the political situation in Thailand has been, and continues to be unstable, and Bangkok international airports are closed.
We regret that we have now reached a time when holding the congress is no longer a viable option.
With kind regards,
IOF Executive Committee
Prof. John Kanis, Prof. Cyrus Cooper, Prof. Bess Dawson-Hughes, Prof. René Rizzoli, Judy Stenmark

ECCEO Collaboration
|
| Following wide ranging discussions with ESCEO about future collaboration, the IOF is pleased to announce that a collaborative agreement has been reached between the two organisations for the conduct of future European congresses. |

Arising from this new relationship, ECCEO has provided a generous offer of assistance to registrants and abstract presenters to the WCO in Bangkok that due to unforeseen circumstances had to be cancelled. The IOF was pleased to accept this generous offer.
