Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the International and of the Local Organizing Committees, we are delighted to welcome you to the 17th International Symposium on Regulatory Peptides.

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to Joseph L. Goldstein who graciously accepted to deliver the Opening Lecture of the Symposium and to Drs Olivier Civelli, Mark von Zastrow, Masamitsu Nakazato, Timothy C. Wang and Martín Martín for accepting to deliver plenary lectures. We congratulate Dr. Herbert Herzog who was selected to present the 8th Viktor Mutt Lecture and Dr. Dai H. Chung who was selected to deliver the 1st Werner Creutzfeldt Lecture.

We also like thank all that accepted to act as Co‐Chairs of the Scientific Sessions and congratulate the young investigators that received Travel Awards. In order to enable all participants to present their excellent research and stimulate interactions and discussions, the posters will be displayed for the duration of the meeting in addition to the official poster session. We hope this will give ample opportunity to view and discuss the posters during the breaks, lunch and breakfast.

We also like to express our appreciation to the Institutions, Foundations and Companies that provided Educational Grants and Sponsorship for the Symposium. We are immensely grateful to James Sinnett‐Smith and Jacqueline Ismen for their input in the organization of the Symposium; without their indefatigable work this meeting could not have taken place.

Lastly, we extend our thanks to the Steering Committee of the International Society of Regulatory Peptides and all participants, the staff of the Fess Parker's Doubletree resort and the local organizing committee.

Sincerely yours,

Enrique Rozengurt, Chair Yvette Taché and Joseph Pisegna, Co‐Chairs
