It will be held on August 31th - September 3rd, 2011 in Marseille, France. The Pan-European Voice conference has always been a great scientific, medical and artistic event. It focuses both on basic and applied scientific research, and on clinical assessment and treatment. It offers the opportunity for international voice researchers, voice therapists, voice teachers and singers to come together and share their knowledge, ideas and experience. PEVOC conferences are known to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of current scientific and clinical research on the larynx and voice. After previous meetings of the PEVOCs in London, Regensburg, Utrecht, Stockholm, Groningen, Graz and Dresden, we are proud to host PEVOC for the first time in France. It will be held in Marseille, a major French city on the Riviera Coast.
