“What makes WHSI stand out is the ability to dive deep into discussions and continue conversations beyond the sessions. The environment fosters not just scientific insight, but also relationships and future collaborations.”

“WHSI was clearly one of the best… packed with exciting content from both basic science and clinical perspectives, with a perfect balance of both.”
"The 2021 WHSI hybrid meeting delivered an exceptional experience — seamlessly integrating in-person and virtual participation, with powerful panel discussions and innovative session formats. From diagnostic advances in biofilms to novel DFU classifications and pipeline therapeutics, the science was cutting-edge and inspiring. The educational depth and interdisciplinary focus made it a standout event.”

"I have attended WHSI five or six times, both as a participant and a speaker. What makes it unique is the open dialogue between science and industry — during sessions and especially through high-quality networking afterward. You don’t find that level of exchange at other conferences."

"It was the best conference I have ever attended... Thank you for an amazing experience! What a phenomenal program! From the speaker lineup and scientific presentations to the venue and virtual accessibility — everything was outstanding. It far exceeded other programs I’ve attended in its professionalism, energy, and quality. A truly memorable event."

“It’s remarkable to see the integration of clinical insights, basic science, and translational research — moving from bench to bedside — all within one meeting. That’s something rare in larger conferences. Events like this help visionary leaders, like Peter Sheehan, bridge innovation and patient care.”

"A valuable platform for academic and industry collaboration in wound healing. The WHSI talks were incredibly insightful for both academic and industrial audiences. The session flow encouraged open exchange, while the breaks created an ideal space for networking and relationship-building. The content reflected real progress being made across research, clinics, and industry — a highly productive environment for shared learning."

“WHSI is special in the way it brings together industry leaders and investigators — both clinicians and scientists — to bridge gaps that often limit progress. It’s a space for interaction, relationship-building, and growing collective knowledge.”

“This was a powerful concept Peter Sheehan envisioned — connecting clinicians, academic scientists, and industry. Being part of WHSI has been incredibly enriching, not only for the lectures but for the meaningful exchanges with participants.”

“The size of the conference allows us to interact very productively. Hopefully, this interaction between academia, industry, and physicians will help bring good-quality products to market faster — the kind our physicians and patients really need.”
