The international Congress of World Sleep Society is the most important meeting of Sleep Research Scientists worldwide.

The 2022 edition will be hosted by the Italian Association of Sleep Medicine (AIMS) with the goal to showcase the national society with an in-person meeting to the global sleep medicine and research audience.

Birgit Högl, MD, president of World Sleep Society and Professor of Neurology and Sleep Medicine says: “We look forward to gathering in-person with our sleep medicine colleagues in Rome. Our congress will once again provide the unique opportunities and experiences that in-person meetings allow.”

“I am honoured that World Sleep Society has decided to hold the World Sleep Congress 2022 in Rome together with our member EGA Worldwide as DMC. This is a very important signal for a positive restart of our business after the Covid-19 Pandemic and we will do our utmost to support this outstanding international meeting” adds Stefano Fiori, President of the Convention Bureau Roma & Lazio.
