First Italian Smell & Taste Course

smell1
 

We are proud to present you the first Italian Smell and Taste course. Our aim is to show up Smell and Taste in a pragmatic and stimulating two days course rich of propaedeutic lectures, practical courses and demonstrations. The course in focused on both theory and practice in order to show you how to manage with smell disorder. 

A 3D dissection of the olfactory cleft will be performed by Professor, the participants of the course are going to have the chance to per-formed endoscopy examination, olfactory tests, trigeminal test, ques-tionnaires & QoL, olfactometry, gustometry, nasal airflow, nasal cytolo-gy, taste test and retronasal test. 

Furthermore, the meeting has been conceived to be a discussion forum of questions related to clinical problems around management of smell and taste pathology and to focus on therapy and future strategy. 

Last, not least, the meeting is meant to build or to strengthen networks among the community of clinicians.
