- (ii) Adipobiology – since 2009 presenting SOS knowledge in adipose tissue in health and disease.
2. Organization of International Symposia on Adipobiology and Adipopharmacology (ISAA) – since 2007; the 3rd ISAA will be held 25 – 2 7 October 2012 in Burgas, Bulgaria.
3. Organization of Biomedical Forum – since 1990, an university program of CME (continuing medical education).
