Congress Corner

A number of deadlines are approaching for the 27th ECNP Congress, below a few reasons why to attend...

The congress starts a day earlier with parallel sessions already on Saturday 18 October, and finishes on Tuesday (instead of Wednesday). Although time is shorter, we have added new sessions: 'Career development sessions' and 'Rapid-fire poster sessions'. More info

Also new this year is free registration for poster presenters from a country with a developing economy (CDE). You can also apply for a CDE Grant (EUR 500, to cover your travel expenses to the congress).

And of course the benefits we have for junior scientists...

Not convinced yet? View here why well known scientists visit our congresses. Antonio Persico: "It's one of the few meetings that has both very high clinical and scientific standards".

Deadlines:
Abstract submission - 1 April 2014
Early registration - 15 April 2014 (lower fees!)
