As you may know the format of the congress has been changed: we will start earlier on Wednesday and finish earlier on Friday. The scientific programme has been coordinated by Prof. Rik Lories, who was able to put together a varied and interesting programme with state-of-the-art keynote lectures, and four sessions of oral poster presentations. Furthermore seven Updates in Therapeutics are scheduled. New this year are the 4 hands-on Workshops, free of charge, but limited to 20 participants each, two quizzes where your active participation is essential and two poster tours, one clinical tour and one translational/basic tour.
