Dear colleagues and friends,
We are delighted to welcome you once again to the Interdisciplinary Global Conference on News in Melanoma / Skin Cancer – the “European Post-Chicago Meeting (EPCM)”!
Last year marked our very first time hosting the conference in the vibrant city of Hamburg, and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. This enthusiastic response has encouraged us to return to Hamburg in 2026 – a setting that truly fosters inspiring exchange and scientific collaboration.
As always, you can look forward to stimulating topics that go far beyond the obvious, offering a deeper look into emerging developments in melanoma diagnostics and therapy. Additionally, we are excited to introduce new faces from the community of young oncologists, who will enrich our discussions with their innovative ideas and scientific curiosity.
With international key opinion leaders presenting cutting-edge research, sharing the latest clinical trial results, and participating in dynamic, forward‑looking discussions, this year’s program continues
our tradition of excellence.
Welcome back to Hamburg – a place where valuable scientific insights meet a warm and familiar atmosphere.
Best wishes,

Axel Hauschild. MD
Congress President
