About the Summer School

Sponsored by Ferring Pharmaceuticals A/S for the benefit of young paediatric endocrinologists in training in ESPE countries.

For three days, usually preceeding the Annual Meeting, an international faculty of about 15 teachers and 25 students selected by the ESPE Summer School Steering Committee deal with three different areas from the field of paediatric endocrinology. Teachers lecture on their specialist subject and students present case reports to illustrate the chosen topics. In-depth discussions, within and outside the programme, help establish contact between younger and older paediatric endocrinologists and among future ESPE members. The programme is organised by the ESPE Summer School Steering Committee.

Fellows who have successfully attended the Summer School will be entitled to one year free ESPE membership (conditions apply and will be notified during attendance of the Summer School).

The 2012 Summer School will take place from 17 to 19 September 2012 at Schloss Oppurg, Germany. The deadline for applications has been extended to 10 February 2012 and the details and application form are below.
