Doctors Association Long Covid
Jena
Under the patronage of Federal Health Minister Karl Lauterbach and Thuringia’s Prime Minister Bodo Ramelow, the Long COVID Doctors’ Association (ÄLC) and the Jena University Hospital are organizing the 2nd Long COVID Congress from November 24th to 25th, 2023.
After the successful 1st congress in 2022 with more than 2,500 participants, the organizers are once again creating the opportunity to bring together experts and those affected to discuss the topic of Long COVID and its diverse effects.
The Long COVID Congress 2023
The Long COVID Congress 2023 has the motto “Participation with Long COVID” and focuses on three areas: interdisciplinarity, the impact of Long COVID on the family, social and work world and the advances in Long COVID research on causes and treatment . The congress will again be organized for interdisciplinary discussions between scientists and doctors.
“According to the current evidence, patients with persistent symptoms after undergoing COVID-19 disease benefit significantly from interdisciplinary diagnostics and treatment of long COVID, but the care and support must also be considered beyond the core medical issues,” says the President of the ÄLC Prof. Martin Walter, Director of the Clinic for Psychiatry and Psychotherapy at Jena University Hospital and Congress President of this year’s event.
Therefore, in addition to a current panel discussion on this topic, there will again be lectures and opportunities for exchange on the current care landscape in Germany. In addition to the scientific program, the congress offers those affected by Long COVID and relatives as well as interested parties a forum for information and exchange.
“We look forward to welcoming many experts from Germany and abroad to the congress again and thus continuing the discussion and cooperation in order to hopefully improve the lives of those affected by long-COVID”, said Congress President Prof. Andreas Stallmach, Director of the Clinic for Internal Medicine IV at the Jena University Hospital. The interdisciplinary exchange should focus even more on scientifically based treatments.
The event will take place again this year in the Volkshaus Jena. State-of-the-art congress management and conference technology also allows digital participation.
