Abstract Submission and Registration to the XVIII World Congress of the ISSHP in Geneva is now open


Dear ISSHP members:


As your president I not only look forward to greeting you at the XVIII World Congress of the ISSHP, but am equally excited it will take place in Geneva, Switzerland. Hypertension in pregnancy is still is a major cause of maternal and fetal death, worldwide, but its toll is many time greater in the developing world. ISSHP is now focusing on this problem, neglected for so long, and no better place to start then at our World Congress, the home of the World Health Organization, who will be a significant participant in the Congress.


Please note: special consideration will be given to abstracts presenting work from ongoing or future clinical trials, original basic and clinical research, and issues of developing countries. A significant number of travel grants will be available.


For ISSHP members: you can use the following code during the registration process indicating that you are an active ISSHP member: dr45tg


See you in Geneva in 2012.


Baha M. Sibai, M.D
