Dear Colleagues,
We are living in an era that challenges the boundaries of time and space. Our goal is not only to keep pace with this demanding age but also to contribute to it. Our efforts are in harmony with the very nature of our minds: to learn, to apply, and to advance. We cannot afford to stand still; at every moment of our profession, we are committed to progress and to adding value.
Every piece of knowledge is but a temporary stop along a long journey of pursuit. Yet the path of science is endless and allows no pause. For science is also transformative; it is the road that leads us to wisdom.
As specialists in Anesthesiology and Reanimation, we aspire to be part of this wisdom that seeks to understand the universe—guided by the accumulation of modern medicine, the ethical values of our profession, and our collective experience.
This year, with great excitement and pride, we invite you to the 2025 Turkish Congress of Anesthesiology and Reanimation, held under the theme “In Pursuit of Knowledge, On the Path of Wisdom.”
Think of the Fibonacci sequence: each number grows by adding the one before it. Just as we inherit our professional legacy from past generations and expand it with our own experience… This spiral is not merely a sequence of numbers; it is the essence of nature, of life, and of medicine. It is nourished by knowledge, shaped by time, deepened by ethics, and brings us a step closer to wisdom.
Today, technology advances at a breathtaking pace: artificial intelligence, algorithms, personalized treatments, new methods of ventilation
… Yet, amidst all these innovations, one fundamental question remains unchanged:
“How do we best serve
humanity?” The answer lies not only in knowledge itself, but in the professionals who can understand, question, internalize, and apply it.
Our congress will be more than a platform for scientific presentations and the sharing of current approaches. It will also serve as a space where generations meet, where young colleagues can ask questions, and where the experience of our senior colleagues can be passed on to the future—a multilayered ground for learning and exchange.
For us, this congress is not merely an academic event; it is also an opportunity to strengthen our professional identity, to be enriched with new ideas and inspiration. It is, so to speak, a meaningful moment of alignment—like the planets converging in harmony.
This year, let us come together; let us pursue knowledge, and follow the path of wisdom side by side.
With respect and warm regards,

19th WORLD CONGRESS of ANESTHESIOLOGISTS
2026-04-15 - 2026-04-19 | Palais des Congrès de Marrakech, Boulevard Mohamed VI, Marrakech, Morocco
Dear Colleagues,
I wish to extend a warm welcome to our global anaesthesiology family to the 19th World Congress of Anaesthesiologists (WCA2026) set to unfold in Morocco from 15-19 April 2026. The congress is organised in partnership with the Société Marocaine d’Anésthesie, d’Analgésie, et de Réanimation (SMAAR).
We are profoundly honoured to announce that the 19th World Congress of Anaesthesiologists (WCA2026) will be held under the High Patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI.
This exceptional distinction reflects the high esteem in which our congress is held and stands as a mark of great honour for the global anaesthesiology community.
WCA is a global event and provides an unparalleled global platform for knowledge exchange, professional growth and collaboration.
WCA transcends continents, attracting participation from every corner of the world and thereby provides a truly global dialogue and feel. The congress will also be available online, ensuring inclusivity and accessibility for all.
Under the expert leadership of the Scientific Committee Co-Chairs Afak Nsiri and Samir Jaber from SMAAR, and Tony Gin from WFSA, the extensive scientific programme provides lectures delivered by top contributors from around the world, the unveiling of new findings, the opportunity for hands-on workshops, niche discussion groups and much more.
But of course, WCA2026 is about more than the science and scientific sessions. It is also a unique and enriching opportunity for colleagues to network and make new connections, and to share learnings from their own hospitals and healthcare systems. As the World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists, this is something we value deeply.
Last but certainly not least, the city of Marrakech will be a stunning backdrop for our meeting. We look forward to learning, sharing and connecting in its wonderfully lively atmosphere.

WFSA President

24th National Congress of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care and the 8th Conference on Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition with International Participation
2026-10-22 - 2026-10-25 | Hotel Bulgaria, Burgas, Bulgaria
The Bulgarian Society of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care is organizing one of the most important professional events in the medical calendar of 2026! The 24th National Congress of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care and the 8th Conference on Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition with International Participation . The events will be held from October 22 to 25, 2026 at the Bulgaria Hotel in Burgas . The forum will bring together specialists from the country and abroad to discuss contemporary trends, challenges and the future of anesthesiology, intensive care and clinical nutrition.
High practical value and clear focus
The scientific program is aimed at topics of high practical value and a clear focus on the development of the specialty. Among the leading accents are modern techniques in anesthesia , including TIVA, balanced anesthesia and a personalized approach to different patient groups. Special attention is paid to neuroanesthesia , cardioanesthesia and pediatric anesthesia . Also to pain management, regional anesthesia and modern opioid-sparing strategies.
New technologies
The program also includes topics related to anesthesia in patients with concomitant diseases , intensive care and resuscitation , sepsis and shock , ventilation strategies and behavior in critical conditions. New technologies in anesthesiology also occupy a significant place – artificial intelligence, automated monitoring systems and the application of ultrasound in regional anesthesia. This clearly shows a simple truth: the specialty is developing rapidly and no serious professional forum can afford to look back while the practice is moving forward.
Safety and risk management
Other highlights include safety and risk management , medical errors and their prevention, checklists and protocols, and crises in the operating room. The program also includes topics related to ethics and communication – informed consent, working with patients and families, and burnout among anesthesiologists. Special attention is also provided for anesthesiology in emergency situations , including pandemics, mass incidents, and military medicine. In other words, it will not only be about technique, but also about the reality in which doctors work every day.
Fees and registration
The participation fee is 120 euros until August 30, 2026 and 150 euros after that date . For nurses, the fee is 100 euros , and medical students are exempt from the participation fee.

TARK 2026
2026-11-05 - 2026-11-08 | Rixos Sungate Hotel, Çifteçeşmeler Beldibi, Antalya, Turkey
Dear Colleagues, Dear Participants,
As anesthesiologists and intensive care physicians, we are present not only in the operating room, but throughout the entire journey of the patient. It is a responsibility that begins in the pre-hospital setting, continues in the intensive care unit, and extends to discharge and beyond.
In the most critical moments of life, where seconds save lives, we do not merely make decisions; we build teams, establish trust, and provide leadership. However, today we must also speak openly about a reality: we are struggling. In environments where communication has weakened, workload has increased, and psychological safety has diminished, even the strongest teams become exhausted. That is precisely why we need effective leadership and ethical guidance more than ever before, and it is exactly why we need to come together. To listen to one another, to share our experiences, and to develop solutions together.
TARK is not merely a congress; it is a gathering where we come together to rethink and rebuild our profession, our working environments, and our future. Here, we will not only talk about science; we will also talk about leadership, teamwork, ethical guidance, and solidarity, because good teams do not come together by chance—they are built.
In the second century of our Republic, it is time to take steps together for a stronger profession and healthier working environments.
We may be tired, but we are not hopeless. Let us become stronger together; let us create change together.
Let us meet at TARK 2026.
Prof Dr Jülide ERGİL
TARD President
