The legacy is strong. The will to succeed has never been greater. There is a never-ending wish to capture international attention. There is an indescribable force impelling us to invest in the Science of tomorrow. And yet, our goal hasn't changed one bit - we want medical students to be aware of the scientific innovations of the present so that they can make the best out of their knowledge in the future. What's more, we want them to get involved in research works that will, in the long turn, reveal something hitherto unknown, changing worldwide perceptions of Science. By nature, medical students are driven by an insatiable curiosity. All the knowledge they seek for is never enough. And not everything they learn comes in books. It is important to explore other paths, to take alternative roads, to dare to take one step ahead. There is a voice in our heads telling us that future doctors can make all the difference. And they may not know it yet, but their journey is about to begin. The iMED Conference® is on its way to becoming the perfect springboard for brilliant, young minds. Science already holds the ticket to Portugal in its hands. Will you join us?
