Respected Seniors, Esteemed Colleagues, and Beloved Budding Anatomists

Greetings from the Pink City – Jaipur!

With folded hands and a heart full of respect, I, on behalf of the Society of Clinical Anatomists (SOCA) and the Organising Committee, feel truly blessed to invite you to the World Congress of Clinical Anatomists – SOCACON 2026 and the 14th International Conference of the Society of Clinical Anatomists, India, to be hosted by the Department of Anatomy, National Institute of Medical Sciences & Research, Jaipur, from 2nd to 4th April 2026.

Under the visionary leadership of our Hon'ble Chancellor, Prof. Dr. B. S. Tomar, NIMS University stands committed to making this event not just another conference, but a celebration of knowledge, fellowship, and shared passion for anatomy.

Our academic programme has been carefully woven in consultation with the stalwarts of clinical anatomy and the guiding leadership of SOCA —ensuring it nourishes curiosity, sparks dialogue, and inspires fresh ideas. Whether you are a senior mentor who has shaped generations, a colleague contributing tirelessly to our science, or a young anatomist taking your first steps into this vast and beautiful field, you will find here something to learn, something to share, and something to remember for a lifetime.

But SOCACON 2026 is more than an academic meeting—it is a journey into the heart of Rajasthan, a land that speaks through its colours, architecture, music, and hospitality. Jaipur, the UNESCO World Heritage City, will open its arms to you, inviting you to lose yourself in the majesty of Amber Fort, City Palace, and Hawa Mahal, to wander through vibrant bazaars filled with stories, and to savour the timeless flavours of Rajasthani cuisine. Above all, you will feel the warmth of its people—hospitality that comes not from duty, but from the heart. With excellent connectivity by air, rail, and road, Jaipur awaits you—not just as a guest, but as a cherished member of our academic family.

So, I humbly and earnestly request you to mark your calendars – 2nd to 4th April 2026 and join us for this gathering of minds and hearts, where knowledge will meet culture, and memories will be made that time cannot fade.

"Padharo Mhare Desh" — Come, be our honoured guest, and let us together make SOCACON 2026 a milestone in the journey of clinical anatomy.
