Dear Friends and Colleagues:
It is my great honor and privilege to serve as the Chair of the 25th Annual Meeting of the Infantile Seizure Society (ISS), to be held in the vibrant city of Utsunomiya in 2026.
Under the theme “Exploring DEE Frontiers: Key Learning and Future Prospects,” this year’s meeting will explore the most recent advances in developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE). We aim to foster dynamic discussions, spark new ideas, and share cutting-edge knowledge that will shape the future of this important field.
This special occasion will be held in conjunction with the 68th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society of Child Neurology chaired by Professor Hitoshi Osaka, offering a unique opportunity for deeper exchange and interdisciplinary collaboration.
We warmly welcome you to Utsunomiya and look forward to an inspiring and enriching experience with all of you.
