Welcome Message

Dear Esteemed Guests and Colleagues,

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the Otolaryngology Head & Neck Surgery Summit Together with Thyroid Cancer Update 2026, taking place on May 8–9, 2026, at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi.

This year marks a significant milestone as we unite two highly regarded educational events under one comprehensive scientific platform. By merging the Thyroid Cancer Update and the Otolaryngology Head & Neck Surgery Summit, we bring together experts and healthcare professionals across endocrinology, oncology, and surgical subspecialties to foster collaboration, learning, and innovation. The conference this year is endorsed by the Gulf Association of Endocrinology and Diabetes (GAED).

Day 1 will focus on the Thyroid Cancer Update, highlighting the latest advances in diagnosis, treatment, and research. The program is designed to showcase how far we have come in the fight against thyroid cancer and to explore the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.

Day 2 will feature the Otolaryngology Head & Neck Surgery Summit 2026, providing an engaging forum to exchange ideas, discuss cutting-edge surgical techniques, and explore the evolution of head and neck surgery through the lens of innovation and patient-cantered care.

As we gather here at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, we are united by a shared mission—to advance clinical excellence, promote multidisciplinary collaboration, and improve patient outcomes. We encourage you to immerse yourself in the sessions, connect with peers, and take full advantage of the learning and networking opportunities this meeting provides.

We look forward to an inspiring and enriching two days with you.

With warm regards,

Sincerely,
The Planning Committee
