Medicine Society organized a congress titled “Advancing Geriatric Medicine in a Modern World” in this year. Symposium covered a wide variety of topics in geriatric medicine, such as geriatric approaches in common chronic diseases, new evaluation methods and treatments in geriatric syndromes. The aim of this study was to evaluate geriatrics studies in Turkey with a critical perspective in order to keep up with the evolving world. All multidisciplinary studies in Turkey involve collaboration among healthcare professionals only. Participants from different disciplines were not only informed of the latest developments in geriatric medicine; also, they had the opportunity to exchange views in this area through the congress. It is thanks to the congress, that geriatrics has been making efforts to be more inclusive in Turkey.
