Dear Colleagues,
It is our great pleasure to invite you to the 65th Annual Meeting of the European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE), taking place in the innovative and sustainable city of Gothenburg, Sweden, from 29 April to 1 May 2027.
This year’s theme, “Developmental Aspects in Paediatric Endocrinology: Shaping Health Across the Lifespan”, highlights the profound impact of developmental processes on endocrine health, from early life through adulthood. The meeting will explore how advances in research, clinical practice, and emerging technologies can enhance our understanding of growth, metabolism, and endocrine disorders, ultimately improving health outcomes across the lifespan.
Hosted in one of Europe’s leading centres for innovation, life sciences, and sustainable development, ESPE 2027 will provide an inspiring setting for the exchange of knowledge, the development of new ideas, and the strengthening of international collaborations. Together, we will examine current challenges and future opportunities in paediatric endocrinology while fostering a shared commitment to advancing patient care worldwide.
We are curating a rich and diverse scientific programme that will include:
- Cutting-edge research and clinical developments in paediatric endocrinology
- State-of-the-art lectures, keynote presentations, How do I … and Meet the Expert sessions from internationally renowned experts
- Interactive sessions designed to stimulate discussion, collaboration, and innovation
- Dedicated educational and networking opportunities for early-career physicians, scientists and trainees
- Opportunities to connect and exchange with colleagues from around the world
Whether you are a clinician, researcher, clinician scientist, trainee, allied healthcare professional, or industry partner with a passion for paediatric endocrinology, ESPE 2027 offers a unique opportunity to exchange knowledge, build meaningful connections, and help shape the future of our field.
To honor our three pioneers in Paediatric Endocrinology, Kerstin Albertsson-Wikland, Martin Ritzén and Otto Westphal, we also invite you to attend a complimentary premeeting on 28 April 2027. The program focuses on current advances and future directions in paediatric endocrinology with international speakers covering growth, growth disorders and sex steroids in clinical practice.
We look forward to welcoming you to Gothenburg for an inspiring and memorable meeting.
