The International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) is a non-governmental umbrella organization dedicated to the worldwide fight against osteoporosis, the disease known as “the silent epidemic”. IOF’s members – committees of scientific researchers, patient, medical and research societies and industry representatives from around the world – share a common vision of a world without osteoporotic fractures. Launched in 1998 with the merger of the European Foundation for Osteoporosis (EFFO, founded in 1987) and the International Federation of Societies on Skeletal Diseases, IOF now represents 194 societies in 92 locations.
The IOF Advanced Training Course on Osteoporosis is taught in English by an internationally renowned faculty, providing a concise and practical overview of the latest knowledge on the physiology, epidemiology, diagnosis and management of osteoporosis. This course, held annually in Lyon since 1991, trains up to 250 international participants.
