Following the tradition of the last 27 years of ISMM, the XIII World Congress will give us an update on high altitude medicine and emergency medicine in both mountainous and remote areas. Since the beginning, ISMM has striven to rise to new medical challenges, ensuring that the objectives of each congress continue to progress the community, delivering the latest, medical information available from world-class international speakers. The event in 2021 will no doubt exceed expectations again, offering open discussion on research developments specific to aspects of high altitude and emergency medicine, including a comprehensive overview of hot-topics of interest in both fields of expertise.

High Altitude Medicine & Biology is the only peer-reviewed journal covering the medical and biological issues that impact human life at high altitudes. The Journal delivers critical findings on the impact of high altitude on lung and heart disease, appetite and weight loss, pulmonary and cerebral edema, hypertension, dehydration, infertility, and other diseases. It covers the full spectrum of high altitude life sciences from pathology to human and animal ecology.
