De ar Colle agues,

On behalf of the EMCA, I am honored to invite you to the 6th Annual Congress of our society in the scenic and thriving northern German city of Hamburg. We have decided to enlarge our audience, and for the first time we are inviting experts in cognition and dementia care from all over Europe.

In addition to lectures, the congress will offer a large variety of workshops, which will facilitate unconstrained and familiar collaboration in small groups. The preliminary program and other helpful information can be found on the EMCA website (www.memoryclinics-europe.eu).

We encourage all health care professionals involved in the field of cognition and dementia to join us.

We are eager to meet you in Hamburg on Novem-ber 18-19, 2016, and we are looking forward to fruitful discussions in an atmosphere of European friendship.
