Dear Colleagues,
Dear Speakers and Guests,

It is my great honor to invite you to the CARAMEL-O UPDATE 2026 Conference, taking place from the 3^rd to the 5^th of September, dedicated to the cardio-renal-metabolic risk in patients with diabetes.

The city of Ovid has always been a place of confluence and inspiration.

Throughout the years, this conference has become more than a mere academic event, it has evolved into a tradition of excellence, a meeting place where ideas turn into long-lasting friendships and future projects. We also look forward to exploring new frontiers together this year, benefiting from the expertise of professionals from a variety of fields.

This event also represents an invitation to young physicians at the beginning of their careers. The medicine of the future is built through curiosity, courage, and dialogue between generations, while the presence of young colleagues brings energy, perspective, and continuity to every meeting. We would be delighted for you to be part of this year’s edition and to contribute with your voice and vision to the success of this event.

We firmly believe that the value of a conference lies not only in the information presented, but also in the community it succeeds in creating.

We also promise to help you discover the beauty of this city with more than 2,600 years of history, waiting to charm you with its unique spirit.

Thank you for the honor of being with us! We hope that the days spent by the seaside will foster not only valuable scientific discussions, but also the inspiration for meaningful collaborations and lasting friendships.

With highest regards,
Prof. Dr. Doina Catrinoiu
