Dear friends,

It is with great satisfaction that we invite you all to attend the 2025 International Ocular Inflammation Society (IOIS) Congress in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. We very are excited with this opportunity and completely dedicated to making a unique and memorable scientific event, gathering colleagues from all over the world, particularly those interested in inflammatory eye diseases, as well as all national / multinational societies affiliated with IOIS.

Rio is internationally known for its breathtaking landscapes, joy and human warmth. We look forward to welcoming you all in IOIS 2025 in Rio!

Andre Curi and Daniel Vasconcelos

We are delighted to extend a warm invitation to you to attend the 2025 Congress of the International Ocular Inflammation Society, set to take place in the scenic neighborhood of Leblon, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from June 25th to 28th. This congress represents a premier gathering for experts, practitioners, and enthusiasts in the field of ocular inflammation, offering a unique opportunity to engage with the latest research, innovations, and treatment strategies in our field.

Nestled between the iconic Dois Irmãos hill and the endless Atlantic, Leblon offers not just a backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty, but a rich tapestry of cultural experiences. With its sophisticated boutiques, eclectic restaurants, and chic cafes, Leblon is a gem of Rio’s social life. The neighborhood's serene beach, less crowded than its famous neighbor Ipanema, promises tranquil moments of relaxation amidst your inspiring academic engagements.

At the IOIS Congress 2025, you’ll not only be part of groundbreaking discussions and presentations but also have the opportunity to experience one of the most enchanting cities in the world. Let Leblon be the starting point of a journey that promises to be as enriching as it is unforgettable.

We can’t wait to welcome you to Leblon, Rio de Janeiro, for an event that promises to be both intellectually rewarding and personally exhilarating. Prepare to be inspired, not just by the cutting-edge research and ideas shared but by the stunning setting of our congress. See you in Rio!
