ASNEMGE is pleased to announce another Young Investigators’ Meeting. This one day course, to be held on Sunday, October, 24th 2010 at the CCIB Barcelona, is designed for young starting investigators in the fields of clinical and/or basic gastroenterology and hepatology.

The programme of the course focuses on “Presentation Skills” and provides a highly informative insight into the world of presentations. Intense and lively lectures and discussions are combined with interactive training sessions and participants’ presentations provide the ideal environment to share ideas and personal experiences.

We offer you the exciting possibility to bring your latest abstract and present it in one minute in front of the audience. You are allowed to have only 2 slides. The first slide should contain Title, name, and brief introduction of the research, the second slide should contain methods, main outcome and conclusion. The total number of words should not exceed 100. We will judge you and give you tips and tricks to improve your presentation skills.  Between 5-10 participants will be allowed to present.

The faculty consists of senior researchers in basic and clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology and ASNEMGE Rising Stars.

The course covers the following areas:

• How to write an abstract
• How to evaluate a scientific paper
• How to present an abstract / project
