40th Workshop of the

European Helicobacter and Microbiota Study Group

September 9 - 11, 2027

Athens, Greece

Welcome

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

 

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to Athens for the 40th International Workshop of the European Helicobacter and Microbiota Study Group, taking place from September 9 – 11, 2027.

 

The EHMSG Workshop brings together clinicians and researchers from around the world to present new findings, examine emerging evidence and discuss its implications for research and clinical practice. The programme will offer a forum for exchanging ideas across disciplines and for exploring developments in Helicobacter and microbiota research.

 

The scientific value of the Workshop lies not only in the results presented, but also in the questions they raise and the discussions they inspire. We hope that these conversations will open new perspectives, strengthen international collaborations and help advance our understanding of how research can improve patient care.

 

Athens provides a wonderful setting for us to meet again. Alongside the scientific sessions, we hope you will enjoy reconnecting with colleagues and experiencing the warmth and hospitality of our host city.

 

We look forward to welcoming you to EHMSG 2027!

​
