Messages from Chairmen
I am happy to know that the 2nd Scientific Conference of the Asia Pacific Society for Sexual Medicine (APSSM) and the 1st Conference of the Ageing, Gender, Andrology and Sexual (sciences) Society of India (AGASSI) - the APSSM-AGASSI Conference - will be held in Mumbai from 1st to 3rd December 2006 under the leadership of Dr. Sudhakar Krishnamurti. The organizers have planned the scientific program very well and I am sure it will be very useful to all the participants and also the members of Urological Society of India (USI). The USI is committed to supporting sub-specialties.

I hope that many people will take advantage of this coming event, and I wish this conference a grand success

I would like to congratulate the 2nd APSSM Regional Scientific Meeting which is to be held in Mumbai, India, together with the 1st Conference of the Aging, Gender, Andrology and Sexual Sciences Society of India (AGASSI). I believe all the participants will enjoy the well organized scientific program under the leadership of Dr. Krishnamurti, as well as the unique Indian culture.

I wish this meeting a great success and let's look forward to having a wonderful time in India, one of the oldest civilizations on earth!

Over the past few years, sexology has grown tremendously in its scope, and the new integrated field of sexual medicine is fast emerging. Today, sexual medicine brings together aspects from psychology, psychiatry, endocrinology, gynaecology, urology, andrology, ageing and gender medicine, plastic and reconstructive surgery, microsurgery, basic science research, etc.. This is a very heartening development for us veteran sexologists who have nurtured sexology faithfully for so many decades. When we started sexology, it was looked at disparagingly, but today it has become a much sought after field.
I would like to congratulate the Ageing, Gender, Andrology & Sexual sciences Society of India (AGASSI) for bringing together specialists from so many fields under one banner to facilitate multi-disciplinary exchange.Also, in my capacity as President of the Asia Oceanic Federation of Sexology (AOFS), I would like to welcome our Asian colleagues and friends from the Asia Pacific Society of Sexual Medicine (APSSM) to India.
I wish Dr. Sudhakar Krishnamurti, the Organizing Chairman, and his capable team all the very best in this pioneering endeavour, and for organizing a great meeting !

On behalf of all members of the Asia Pacific Society of Sexual Medicine (APSSM), we would like to express our hearty gratitude to Dr. Sudhakar Krishnamurti, the Congress Chair, for setting up the 2nd APSSM Regional Scientific Meeting (RSM), which is to be held in Mumbai (Bombay), India, on 1, 2 and 3 December 2006. The first APSSM-RSM was held in Osaka on 8th April 2004, conjointly with the 92nd Annual Meeting of the Japanese Urological Association (JUA), and 12 representatives of APSSM from different countries and about 300 participants including Japanese members enjoyed the meeting.
The 2nd APSSM-RSM is being held along with the first meeting of the Aging, Gender, Andrology & Sexual sciences Society of India, (AGASSI) which is established as one of the biggest novel medical projects of India, and which is composed of famous scientists from all over the world, all aiming for total health care in both genders, including research, physical practice and education to medical practitioners and to the general population in India, using many methodologies.

We believe that the APSSM-RSM-AGASSI conference could become a more fruitful meeting than the bi-annual APSSM meetings held previously in other countries in terms of scientific quality and hospitality, and many APSSM members who visit Mumbai, one of most charming cosmopolitan cities in the world with high technology and traditional cultures, will have an enjoyable time.

We are looking forward to meeting all of you at the APSSM-RSM-AGASSI conference in Mumbai.
