ESPE
The European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE) is a global organization promoting excellence in paediatric endocrinology and metabolism. It supports research, education, and clinical practice worldwide. Paediatric endocrinology focuses on hormone-related disorders in children, from infancy to adolescence. These include growth issues, puberty disorders, diabetes, thyroid problems, adrenal gland conditions, and hormone deficiencies.
The 64th ESPE Meeting will take place in 2026 in Marseille, France. As the country’s second-largest city, Marseille is the cultural and scientific heart of southern France—a vibrant blend of modernity and history. Situated in the picturesque Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region, Marseille offers a unique atmosphere. From the dramatic Calanques and the iconic football club Olympique de Marseille, to the city’s breathtaking views of the deep blue Mediterranean. Marseille also reflects the rich influences of neighboring Italy, the dynamism of contemporary arts, and the spirit of colorful, alternative styles. It’s a city full of energy and contrasts—an inspiring backdrop for scientific exchange and international collaboration.
