The 6th International Melanocortin meeting will be held in Utrecht, the Netherlands, from Thursday evening 8 July to Sunday 11 July 2010.
Utrecht is a pleasant medieval city in the center of the Netherlands. The conference site is located in the old center of Utrecht and most hotels in which rooms are blocked for this meeting are within walking distance from the railway station and conference site.
Similar to the 5th International Melanocortin meeting in Sunriver, Oregon 7 years ago, we aim to cover the melanocortin field broadly. Main players in the field have accepted the invitation to speak, and we are already looking forward to an excellent symposium,
