Dear Colleagues,

The main purpose of World Institute of Pain is to educate and train our colleagues by including local hands-on training, international seminars, and exchange of clinicians all over the world.

Turkish Registered Section of World Institute of Pain established in June 2018 has organized 5 international, 5 national meetings since then.

Last year we organized the 4^th Interventional Pain Istanbul, Virtual Symposium between 21-24 October 2021, with 109 participants from 23 countries. For the last two years we had to organize the symposiums virtually, but live cadaver workshop broadcasted to all over the world.

It is again a great pleasure and honour for us to welcome you all to the 5^th Interventional Pain Istanbul, Pain Congress and Cadaver Workshop endorsed by World Institute of Pain and organized by WIP Turkish Registered Section in Istanbul, Turkey to be held between 21-23 October 2022. This year we will have two days lectures and cadaver workshops as well as free and poster presentations for our younger generation, followed by the FIPP-CIPS examination which will be held by the Board of Examination of the World Institute of Pain.

The cadaver workshop and simulation will include all essential and important interventional procedures for chronic pain. Our main goal is to present the scopes of pain medicine, Algology on an interventional level.

The scientific program committee established on a multidisciplinary multinational level, formed of well known colleagues who gave their whole lifes to Pain Medicine will give you the real taste of pain medicine, Algology.

We are looking forward to welcome you in the 5^th Interventional Pain Istanbul.

On behalf of the Organizing Commitee
