Because of a small number of investigators in neuroendocrinology, academic and technical exchanges are necessary to develop our knowledge on the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases in neuroendocrinology. The International Neuroendocrine Federation Korean Branch (INF-KB) will host International Congress of Neuroendocrinology in conjunction with the existing conferences such as Pituitary Expert Meeting in Asia and annual meeting of Korean Neuroendocrine Study Group to create a favorable environment for further academic achievements and global communication between many investigators in Asia. In addition, the INF-KB will continue the public promotion and neuroendocrine disease registration projects to arouse the danger of neuroendocrine diseases as well as to support the patients.
