On behalf of the Malaysia Spine Society, it gives me enormous delight to invite everyone to participate in the 9th International Malaysia Spine Society (MSS) Scientific Congress that will be held at EQ Kuala Lumpur on the 5th – 7th August 2022.

It is my pleasure to inform you that the theme of this Congress is " New Frontiers in Spine Surgery" and the Scientific Chairman is Dr Amir Fariz Zakaria.

I am really looking forward to having a physical congress after enduring two years of restricted social gathering due to COVID-19 pandemic. For the 9th International MSS Scientific Congress, the scientific committee draws a very broad programme that comprises of prominent international speakers joining virtually to share the latest updates on their respective fields. We have also invited numerous notable local speakers to share their experience and knowledge.

The Congress will keep us informed with the progress in the field of spine care besides providing us with opportunities for networking. The educational activities, i.e., pre-congress workshop, plenary lecture, international speakers’ sessions, symposia, expert forums, meet-the-expert sessions, best papers session and free papers session, will also enable the participants, particularly the younger surgeons and postgraduate trainees, to learn more about spine care management. Additionally, we will be giving out two awards in this Congress, MSS Presidential Best Research Award (Oral Presentation), and MSS Presidential Best Poster Presentation Award. We are inviting all spine surgeons and spine-related researchers to submit their research works for free papers and e-poster presentations.

As the President of the Malaysia Spine Society, I encourage all of you to join us at the 9th International MSS Scientific Congress on 5th – 7th August 2022 at EQ Kuala Lumpur.

Thank you.

Prof Dr Zamzuri Zakaria
President,
