Professor Constantine A. Stratakis is an internationally known medical geneticist, endocrinologist, translational investigator and executive leader with a unique combination of skills and experience in science, healthcare, clinical trials, molecular research and genetics, policy, government regulations, and patient advocacy.

Prof. Stratakis served as the Chief Scientific Officer of ELPEN Pharmaceuticals in Athens (GR) and directed the efforts to build a new ELPEN Research Institute that is due to open in 2025, while he also runs human genetics and precision medicine at IMBB, FORTH, in Heraklion, GR.

Dr Raverot is a Professor in Endocrinology at Lyon 1 University and is head of the endocrine department and chief of the Reference Center of Rare Pituitary Disease and the Endocrine Department at Hospices Civils of Lyon participating in the European Reference Network on Rare Endocrine Conditions (Endo-ERN). He leads a research team dedicated to “Pathophysiology of pituitary tumour” at the INSERM U1052 Cancer Research Center of Lyon. He coordinated the European Society of Endocrinology guidelines on aggressive pituitary tumours and carcinoma.

His major research interests are pituitary tumor pathogenesis and identification of prognosis markers, allowing the development of potential new therapies. He is president-elected of the French Society of Endocrinology.

Professor Wadsley was appointed as a Consultant Clinical Oncologist at Weston Park Hospital, Sheffield, in 2004. His clinical interests are in thyroid cancer, neuroendocrine tumours and pancreatic/biliary tract cancers, with a particular interest in molecular radiotherapy.

His research mirrors these clinical interests, with a particular focus on thyroid cancer and neuroendocrine tumours. He is a member of the NCRI Thyroid Cancer Subgroup. He is the Clinical Director of the Sheffield Cancer Clinical Trials Centre, Cancer Specialty Lead for the Yorkshire and Humber Clinical Research Network and the NIHR National Specialty Lead for Radiotherapy and Imaging.

Hermann L. Müller is a Professor of Pediatrics and head of the Department of Pediatrics and Pediatric Hematology/Onology, at University Children’s Hospital, Carl von Ossietzky University Oldenburg, Klinikum Oldenburg, Germany.
