Dear Esteemed Colleagues,

The Turkish Society of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery has tasked us, the 45th National Congress Organization Committee, with organizing our largest national congress.

While we are preserving the core format of our congress, we are keen to introduce some innovative changes that we hope you will appreciate.

Given the rapid advancement in both the quality and quantity of information tools, we believe it is time to move beyond the conventional presentations found in various media. To stay abreast of new research and ideas, we must foster a comprehensive scientific environment that supports both our academic growth and addresses the practical challenges faced by our peers in the field.

We are particularly eager to receive your ambitious submissions. We aim to ensure that our original research, crafted with substantial effort, gains the visibility and recognition it deserves. It is unacceptable for these valuable contributions to remain unnoticed, confined to early morning sessions attended only by the speakers and a few close associates.

The limited number of standard sessions previously restricted many young colleagues from presenting their experiences at this pivotal national congress. We are committed to significantly alleviating this limitation. Please submit your specialized studies and applications; opportunities for you to express yourself will be provided.

We look forward to sharing our knowledge and enjoying a beautiful time together in Northern Cyprus during its most splendid season.

"There is Much We Can Learn from Each Other"

On behalf of the 45th Organization Committee
Prof. Dr. Onur Çelik
Congress President
