Welcome!
Dear colleagues and healthcare professionals:
With great enthusiasm and profound joy, we extend our warmest welcome to the Congress of the Latin American Society of Pediatric Endocrinology – SLEP 2026, to be held in Quito, Ecuador, from October 28 to d31, 2026.
For the first time, our beloved SLEP reaches the Middle of the World, in the heart of the Andes, where science, culture, and human warmth come together to offer an unforgettable academic and personal experience.
This congress will bring together leading specialists, researchers, and healthcare professionals from across Latin America and around the world. The scientific program has been carefully designed to address the most recent advances in research, diagnosis, and treatment, fostering continuous education and interdisciplinary exchange. In addition, it will be an ideal space to share clinical experiences and build regional and international scientific collaborations.
SLEP 2026 will also be a human gathering—a reunion of colleagues and friends—where the spirit of cooperation and mutual learning will strengthen our mission to improve children’s endocrine health throughout Latin America.
We look forward to welcoming you in Quito, a city declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which will receive you with its hospitality, rich history, and unique landscapes at the Middle of the World.
We cordially invite you to participate actively and be part of this major scientific event, which will mark a new milestone in the history of our Society.
See you in Quito at SLEP 2026!
Science brings us together at the Middle of the World.
