The congress will be held in conjunction with the European Federation of Societies for Hand Therapy (EFSHT) and the Swiss Society for Hand Therapy, a unique opportunity to deepen our interdisciplinary collaboration and to learn from each other.  \nThe upcoming FESSH Congress in Basel, 2026, focuses on “Restoration of the Balance to improve Hand Function”. This theme explores the complex interplay of structures required for a balanced optimal hand function. Skeletal stability, joint congruency and harmony between intrinsic and extrinsic ligaments as well as muscles and tendons all contribute to balance. Innervation, vascularity, and central nervous control regulate and maintain these functions.  \nLocated in the heart of Europe, Basel is a thriving metropolis with a rich history and a dynamic culture. Join us for the FESSH-EFSHT Congress 2026 and discover the vibrant city of Basel, Switzerland!  \nEsther Vögelin and Philipp Honigmann  \nFESSH Congress Presidents  \nPatricia Kammermann and Marianne von Haller  \nEFSHT Congress Presidents  \n4  \nCONGRESS COMMITTEES  \nFESSH INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE  \nLeila Harhaus (DE) chair Piotr Czarnecki (PL) co-chair  \nEsther Vögelin (CH) Congress President Philipp Honigmann (CH) Congress President  \nMartin Aman (DE)  \nAndrea Atzei (IT)  \nGreg Bain (AU)  \nBruno Battiston (IT)  \nInga Besmens (CH)  \nMaurizio Calcagni (CH)  \nKim Casañas (ES)  \nLouis Catalano (US)  \nHenk Coert (NL)  \nIlse Degref (BE) Joris Duerinkx (BE)  \nSimon Farnebo (SE)  \nFlorian Früh (CH)  \nEftal Güdemez (TR)  \nMathias Häfeli (CH)  \nPascal Hannemann (NL)  \nDaniel Herren (CH) Judith Hetthessy (HU)  \nJonathan Hobby (UK) Radek Kebrle (CZ)  \nDon Lalonde (CA)  \nWee Leon Lam (SG)v Gürsel Leblebicioğlu (TR) Philippe Livernaux (FR)  \nAlex Lluch (ES)  \nShai Luria (IL)  \nAndreii Lysak (UA)  \nJane Messina (IT) Francisco del Piñal (ES)  \nOle Reigstad (NO)v Silvia Schibli (CH)  \nChihab Taleb (FR)  \nSumedh Talwalkar (UK)  \nFrancesca Toia (IT)  \nPierluigi Tos (IT)  \nFrederik Verstreken (BE)  \nEFSHT INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE  \nMarianne von Haller (CH) Congress President Patricia Kammermann (CH) Congress President  \nVera Beckmann-Fries (CH)  \nBernadette Tobler (CH)  \nGreta Colaiacovo (IT)  \nYara can Kooij (NL)  \nSonja Pelzmann (AT)  \nAlice Oerts (DK)  \n5  \nGENERAL INFORMATION  \nDATE  \n3—6 June 2026  \n1.3.
