Gastroenterology and Endotherapy: 26th European Workshop (GEEW), Brussels, June 16 - 18, 2008

The 26th GEEW will take place at the Brussels Exhibition Centre, from Monday, June 16, to Wednesday, June 18, 2008.

Established in 1983, this meeting has become one of the largest European Workshops in its field and attracts approximately 900 international participants from 60 different countries.

The overall goal of this course is to provide information about current technology and to enhance knowledge in gastroenterology and endotherapy. The meeting will demonstrate the new technologies and future prospects of endotherapy that will be discussed with the audience during live demontrations and State of the Art lectures.

ESGE Individual members are encouraged to take advantage of the 20% registration fee reduction for this workshop which is being held under ESGE patronage.

Designed for endoscopists and gastroenterologists but also for physicians in training as well as for nurses and GI assistants, the meeting will include live video demonstrations permitting interchanges between faculty and registrants during procedures. To encourage interactive discussion, each half day will end with a GEEW Questions and Answers time, lead by a group of experts, to clarify and discuss the live cases and the topic of the session.

A live broadcast will be audio-visually transmitted to the Brussels Exhibition Centre from four endoscopic suites located at Erasme Hospital.In controversial cases, a consensus will be sought by means of the interactive electronic voting system.
