Dear Colleagues and Friends!
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to Vienna for the EURAPS Research Council Meeting 2026.
Vienna, with its rich cultural heritage, imperial charm, and vibrant academic scene, offers an inspiring setting for scientific exchange and collaboration. As we gather to share the latest research, foster new ideas, and strengthen professional connections, I hope you will also take a moment to enjoy the unique atmosphere of our beautiful city – from historic coffee houses to modern architecture and world-class music.
The program ahead promises a stimulating blend of innovation, scientific excellence, and open discussion. I am confident that this meeting will not only contribute significantly to the advancement of plastic and reconstructive surgery research but also provide a memorable experience for all participants.
On behalf of the local organizing team, I thank you for your contribution and engagement. We look forward to insightful discussions, fruitful collaborations, and a wonderful time together in Vienna.
Welcome – and enjoy your stay!
Warm regards,
Stefan Hacker
