It is my privilege and pleasure to welcome you all to the 2022 edition of the INDOCLEFTCON as the President of the Indian Society of Cleft lip Palate and Craniofacial Anomalies [ISCLP&CA]
It would be a significant understatement to say that we are living in troubled times. Life as we know it, has been significantly rearranged in the last two years. One of the casualties of this upheaval was the annual meeting of our association in 2021. To our credit we tried to make up for it with a number virtual educational initiatives including a comprehensive CME on Craniofacial Anomalies. However we cannot put off the actual event and will be holding a hybrid annual meeting the INDOCLEFTCON 2022 at the Le Meridian Convention Centre at Kochi from the 19th - 21st of May 2022.
The theme for this meeting will be “Challenges and complications”. I hope all of you interested in caring for children with clefts will join us in this meeting one way or the other. We will endeavour with the help of a very experienced and diverse organising committee to make it enjoyable for you either physically at Kochi and virtually from your comfort zones anywhere in the world.
Best Wishes
