Prevention and treatment of gastrointestinal cancer, new advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy, and advanced case management, once again, will remain the core of our lectures and demonstrations. Our expansion into IBD related diseases and related therapeutic advancements will continue, with lectures from the best experts in the field.

We strive in the two days of our scientific program to provide a positive effect on improving patient quality of care.

Through lectures we transfer the knowledge and experience of the best scientists in the world.

Through live cases we demonstrate effective techniques of therapeutic interventions, from two of the best-known hospitals in Athens.

Through regular and advanced hands-on courses we provide valuable practical experience on new equipment and techniques for both our novice and experienced colleagues.

Our aim is to improve the knowledge, diagnostic approach, and therapeutic intervention of our attendees, in order for them to achieve the optimal result for their patients.

This course is designed for gastroenterologists, surgeons, advanced endoscopists, health care providers, internists, general practitioners, trainees, nurses and technicians.

Educational Grants for Physicians to Attend the 5th AISDD 2020

EDUCATIONAL GRANTS FOR PHYSICIANS

Recent MedTech Europe rules prohibit member companies from directly sponsoring physicians to attend third-party organized educational events like the 5th AISDD 2020, meaning that companies will no longer be able to pay registration, travel or accommodation expenses to individual HCPs to attend the 5th AISDD 2020.

Restricted educational grants may be provided to conference sponsors to help off-set costs for participants.

Industry partners can issue the organizing bureau with an educational grant and we the organizers will select recipients based on criteria sent by the Industry Parnter. Companies will be able to define the type of participants eligible for the grant but not the name individual recipients.

Grans will cover the cost of registration, accommodation during the symposium and travel expenses

Educational Grants are offered to healthcare professionals and researchers who have limited access to funding or difficulties to obtain financial assistance in order to attend the Symposium.

How will the educational grant process work?

We have a physician package which includes the following:

Full conference registration (incl VAT) 198,40 €

3 nights accommodation (accommodation will be provided upon availability - priority will
