Welcome to your May update from the World Muscle Society

April has been another busy month for the WMS and May looks set to be just as busy! 

We came to the end of our abstract submissions window with almost 500 submissions for the 2023 Congress. WM2023 is shaping up to be another really inspiring event.

You'll notice this newsletter has a slightly different format from previous months. We have a lot of news to bring you and each story links to our website for more details. Do let us know what you think. 

I am particularly proud to see so many WMS faces within this newsletter. It's a timely reminder of the wealth and breadth of experience across our society and the potential we have to acheive extraordinary things all around the world.

I wish you the very best.

Volker Straub
WMS President
