We are delighted to welcome you to the 43rd Annual Meeting of the International Fetal Medicine and Surgery Society, to be held from September 27 to October 1, 2026, at the Hotel OKURA in Kyoto, Japan, during the beginning of the beautiful autumn season.
This year’s meeting concept is “Bridging old and new.” The meeting promises a dynamic scientific agenda, paired with hallmark activities by all participants. “Kyoto was the capital of medieval Japan and preserved impressive culture with many temples, shrines, and gardens, which are central to Japanese identity. Kyoto is an outstanding incubator for new science and technology in Japan. We are confident that the location will offer an exceptional environment for academic exchange, friendship, and inspiration.
We anticipate a good level of enthusiasm this year; therefore, we encourage you to register early to ensure your spot.
We look forward to welcoming you to Kyoto for a week of scientific excellence and a memorable experience.

Sincerely,

Haruhiko Sago
