MEGMA

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 6^th International Middle East Genetics and Metabolic Academy (MEGMA) Symposium. Our annual symposium (known as MEGMA) is a premier international symposium in Medical Genetics field including Clinical, Biochemical and Laboratory Genetics.

This year’s meeting is being held in the beautiful The Hotel Galleria, Curio Collection by Hilton Jeddah, KSA.

The scientific and organizing committee has developed an exciting inter-disciplinary program. This Program includes lectures offering continuing medical education credits to clinicians; panel sessions discussing important medical genetics issues and case presentations discussing several interested genetic cases faced in the clinic. Additonally, it accepted more than 30 abstracts as poster presentations.

The continued growth of our meeting is an indication of its high quality and impact. This year, we will live three days full of scientific knowledge, sessions, and panel discussion in a friendly and family atmosphere. Special thanks go to, sponsoring companies and organizing company Leqaa for their outstanding service and contributions toward making this meeting possible.

MEGMA continues to strive to provide a unique, effective platform for medical geneticists to publish, to present, to network, and to advance their careers. If you are not an MEGMA member yet, please consider joining this dynamic academy, and join us for future MEGMA Conferences.

Again, welcome to 6^th MEGMA. I appreciate your participation and hope you will find this meeting stimulating and rewarding.
