The 21th Edition Academic Medical Congress of Piaui was
performedduring the 17 to 21 September, 2014, in Teresina
- Piauí. In this year, the COMAPI had also consolidated as V
Medical Academic Congress ofBrazilian Northeast, a trajec-
tory that valorizes this scientific event, already recognized
as one of the largest academic medical congress in the
Northeast.
It is important to note that we live today in the COMAPI is
a merit of the work of successive generations that have
had great success in their organization of this event in all
these 21 years. The I Academic Medical Congress of Piaui
was performed in 1994 with a "scientific spirit" that began
in the 90s in Medicine of Piauí. In 2010, the COMAPI crosses
borders and becomes the I Medical Academic Congress of
Brazilian Northeast. At the time, COMAPI's objectives were
governed by an orchestra of impossible almost dreams! In
this 21th edition, I can say that these dreams are today,
our reality.
First of all, it is an honor and a great responsibility to re-
present the Organizing Committee of the XXI COMAPI that

through a big effort performed another edition of this
event. There were 11 months of intense work, compromise
and learning, valuable for developing our enterprising spirit
which was essential to plan, to choose and to make deci-
sions to cooperate in some way with the construction of a
basic knowledge to our lives as lifelong learners of science.
We are also thankful to physician and professor who hel-
ped you to prepare our scientific program: André Gonçalves
Da Silva, MD, PhD, president of our scientific committee.
We thank all the lecturers, especially Fabio Biscegli Jatene,
MD, PhD, national reference in teaching and cardiovascular
surgery.
Certainly, every new COMAPI, students and professionals
in Health will be better and will be better prepared, proud
and anxious to be involved in a great and endless struggle
for the improvement of health. For all these reasons - and
mostly we are investing in the greatness of principles, we
strongly believe that together we can offer students a work
of the highest scientific, medical and social!

For over 25 years Students Scientific Association of Medical
University of Warsaw has organized scientific conferences
for biomedical students - first at national level and since
2005 on an international scale. 11th Warsaw International
Medical Congress was held at the Medical University of
Warsaw between 7th and 10th May 2015.
During 4 days of Congress we have hosted over 500 bio-
medical students from 31 countries. That places us in the
group of 4 biggest conferences in Europe and undeniably
the most powerful medical student congress in Poland.
Scientific jury, after detailed review process qualified 331
from over 600 submitted abstracts. Selected papers were
presented in 23 different thematic sessions. In order to
engage even more students and enable presentation of
interesting medical cases, there were four Case Report Ses-
sions: Dentistry Case Report, Internal Case report, Pediatric
Case Report and Surgical Case Report. Case report sessions
attracted wide interest. Altogether 63 case reports were ac-
cepted in the review process.
Due to this wide range of topics every student could find
a proper session for the paper. Every research and case
report was presented as an oral presentation in front of
jury which consisted of Professors and Assistant Professors
from different academic centers. Sessions were also open
to every interested person active participants, passive
participants and people who did not register. Absence of
restrictions for listeners (registration was not required for
-
participation in sessions and lectures) enabled unlimited
presence for every person interested in the field.
We believe that WIMC is a great place for young resear-
chers to meet and build their scientific network. Based on
this we try to invite top-class speakers to perform Keynote
Lectures. During 11th WIMC participants could learn about
out-of-body experience from prof. Henrik Ehrsson (Karolins-
ka Institutet, Stockholm), Enhanced Recovery After Surgery
(ERAS) system from prof. Nicolas Demartines (CHUV Lousan-
ne), brain at extremes of physiologyfrom Mark Wilson, MD
PhD (Imperial College of London), genetics of breast cancer
from prof. Jan Lubiński (Pomeranian University of Medici-
