Dear friends and all the participants,

Welcome to Taipei.
On behalf of the Taiwan Society of Critical Care Medicine (TSCCM) and the Taiwan Society of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine (TSECCM), we are pleased to announce that the SECC-Best of SCCM Congress 2024 Taipei will be held on October 5-6, 2024. This is the third time we are hosting this international congress. The main theme is Smart Emergency and Critical Care (SECC). Regarding Best of SCCM, participants will have the opportunity to meet elite experts from the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) and learn from the best extracts of the SCCM's annual congress.

Entering a post-epidemic era, it is time to rebuild the platform to share updated critical care research and experiences face-to-face. We express our deepest gratitude to all speakers for taking their valuable time to prepare lectures. The topics will cover various fields such as AI management, data science, updates on sepsis management, AKI and renal critical care, trauma care and nutrition of critically ill patients, and multi-organ treatment in COVID-19.

In addition to the congress, we’re hosting a satellite conference and Datathon focused on data science, AI, and large language models (LLM) techniques in healthcare. We are pleased to announce that the Datathon is co-held with the MIT MIMIC group and its leader, Dr. Leo Celi. It’s a fantastic opportunity for educational advancement, skill development, and innovation.

Taiwan is one of the safest and most convenient countries in the world. In this beautiful island, not only are there various mountain and sea sceneries and hot springs, but the most beautiful scenery is Taiwan's friendly people. We sincerely invite you to enjoy Taiwan's unique and attractive travel experiences.

We wish you all an enjoyable congress and a wonderful weekend.

Sincerely yours,
