WELCOME
Dear Friends,
Greetings from the Organizing Committee of 15th APCP - 53rd PEDICON - 5th APCPN 2016!
It gives us immense pleasure to invite you all to the Pearl city of India- Hyderabad, for the Country's biggest educational and
Scientific feast of the year 2016 - Joint meeting of 15th Tri-Annual Asia Pacific Pediatric Association, 53rd PEDICON 2016
and 5th Asia Pacific Pediatric Nursing.
The conference would have a galaxy of International and National faculty who will share their knowledge and expertise in the
field of medical care of neonates, infants, children and adolescents. We hope you will join us in Hyderabad for this
educational and scientific feast.
Hyderabad has been transformed into one of India's prime economic regions. Boasting of a cyber city and state-of-the art
medical facilities, it is home to several of the world's largest corporations, a huge film city,Genome Valley and even a
dedicated 'edu' city. It is also called Pharma capital of India.
Hyderabad is truly a gourmet's paradise. Known for its biryani – a rice dish with succulent melt-in-the-mouth pieces of meat
cooked delicately with the best Indian spices. Top the taste with a spoonful of Qubani ka meetha – a delicious dessert of
apricots and cream and feel the charm of the Nizams overcome you.
Shopping here is a unique experience too. Head to the old city and explore the lanes of the colourful marketplace. Bright,
beautiful bangles, pearls of all shapes and sizes, exquisite Indian embroidery, you'll be spoilt for choice! For the more urban
shoppers, there are of course swanky malls and designer boutiques.
The magnificent palaces and the forts still stand tall, inviting you to experience the glorious history of the past. The royal
legacy of the city of Hyderabad waits to embrace you with its warm hospitality and myriad attractions. Add to that a brilliant
platform for exchange of knowledge and interaction.
Warm Regards,
Dr Naveen Thacker
