Personal Message from Robert Sader
Greeting address on behalf of German Cleft Lip and Palate Craniofacial Society (GCPA)
Dear participants of the 17th ICPF World Congress and the 37th congress of the German Cleft Lip and Palate Assoiation in Frankfurt, Germany,
The interdisciplinary GCPA has closely followed all the activities of the ICPF since its foundation in Kyoto in 1997 and many of our members have attended its events and workshops worldwide. Thus it is a great honor for us that our renowned member Prof. Robert Sader was asked to organize the third ICPF World Congress in Germany after those in Munich in 2002 and in Leipzig in 2018.
Due to his great interest and expertise in the treament of cleft lip and palate patients Prof. Sader has been able to set up a wide scientific program covering all aspects of this field where there will be plenty of room for in depth interdisciplinary discussion.
There will certainly also be lots of opportunities to get together, meet old friends and make new ones at different social events at the congress site and in the famous beautiful city of Frankfurt.
Wishing all of you a good journey to Germany and a most interesting time in our country
I remain yours with kind regards,
Prof. Dr. Bert Braumann
Chairman, Cleft Lip and Palate Association
