Amb. Dr. Abdul Salam Al Madani Executive Chairman, Dubai Otology, Chairman of INDEX Holding We are excited to welcome you all to the 10th edition of the Dubai Otology, Neurotology & Skull Base Surgery Conference and Exhibition. It is remarkable how well we’ve grown and developed over these last 10 years and continue to gather some of the greatest experts in these specialized fields. It is heartbreaking to know that 1 in every 1,000 children are born with advanced nerve hearing loss and the most common cause of hearing loss in adults is old age. Skull Base Surgery is a complicated process which can take hours to perform and then takes weeks for a patient to recover. Our aim is to highlight the shared difficulties we all encounter and find solutions for our dear ones. Dubai Otology is a prime example of when doctors, professors, specialists, government officials, key-decision-makers, and students from international universities, hospitals, clinics, and government agencies assemble to converse over profound topics under the common goal of broadening their knowledge in the medical field and sharing expertise on how to improve patient care. Over the course of three days, our exhibition hall will also give you the opportunity to see the latest technologies first-hand with live demonstrations. This will be a great chance for everyone to network and create new partnerships. Thank you to all our partners, speakers, participants, exhibitors, and sponsors for their generous support and dedication through these last 10 years in helping to make Dubai Otology a great success. We look forward to seeing you all and wish you a wonderful experience in our beloved Dubai. 8 DUBAI OTOLOGY, NEUROTOLOGY AND SKULLBASE SURGERY CONFERENCE AND EXHIBITION Message from the Scientific Committee Chairman Dr. Mohammed Al Hammadi Chairman of the Scientific Committee As this year’s chairman it gives me a great pleasure to welcome you all to the 10th edition of Dubai Otology, Neurotology & Skull Base Surgery Conference & Exhibition, held under the patronage of His Excellency Abdul Rahman Al Owais, the Minister of Health in UAE.
