We are pleased to announce a special guest for the Opening Session on Thursday, September 4th at 9:00! Among the EPATH president, Annelou de Vries, and Conference host Timo Nieder, Maryam Blumenthal, Hamburg’s senator for science, research, and equality, will open the conference with a welcome address, marking the official beginning of our gathering.
„Taking a stance for tolerance and diversity means standing up whenever transgender people are discriminated. As a senator responsible for both science as well as equality, I am very proud that Hamburg is hosting the 6th conference of the European Professional Association for Transgender Health (EPATH). Because transgender health research is a discipline that shows how science can make a difference in our society. We are very happy to welcome so many experts from all over the world to exchange ideas and approaches from various disciplines. I wish to thank everyone who made this conference possible. Welcome to Hamburg!” – Maryam Blumenthal
