World congress on osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and musculoskeletal diseases

The 24th Edition of the WCO-IOF-ESCEO Congress will take place in London on April 11-14, 2024.

The members of the Committee of Scientific Advisors of the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) and the European Society for Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis (ESCEO) are developing a very exciting Congress scientific programme that will bring together the world’s best in the field of musculoskeletal health and disease.

We really hope to welcome you in London, United Kingdom and that this Congress will move the field one step forward on all fronts; from new understanding of bone metabolism and pathology, to new strategies and options in prevention, diagnosis and treatment.

The city of London offers a most convenient and pleasant setting for international congresses. We hope that you will also take the opportunity to explore its many attractions!
