IV International Caparica Conference on Urine Omics and Translational Nephrology 2019

02nd – 04th September 2019 | Caparica | Portugal

Dear Colleagues and friends

And here we are again! After two years of intense work I am sure that all of us have news to share about that incredible sample called urine and that incredible organ called kidney.

The journey we started together six years ago is going to have a new meeting in Caparica. The good memories we have from the 2013, 2015 and 2017 meetings, it guarantees a wonderful 2019 meeting.

And we indeed believe this is going to happen. Yes… but with some changes. First we are going to make the schedule less intensive and second we are going to set one evening free, so you may decide between relax at the beach, or visit Lisbon in an organized trip.

 

This trip will include the crossing of the Tejo Estuary by ferry. You may even decide to play golf, or go to the SPA facilities the venue has available (see more at http://www.aldeiadoscapuchos.pt/).

Looking forward meeting you soon.

Yours truly
J. L. Capelo

Hotel Aldeia dos Capuchos

Be aware of cold calls from Convention Hotel Services (CHS) or from someone named Adam Max! A company called CHS (Convention Hotel Services) is calling or e-mailing attendees of conferences worldwide, claiming to work for the conference organizers and asking for credit card details to finalize the booking of accommodation. If you receive such a call or e-mail, do not give away any personal information or credit card details! None of the parties involved in the organization of URINOMICS 2019 is working with CHS

We look forward to seeing you soon.

With kindest regards
