Winter School 2025
The 2025 ESPE Winter School will take place from Saturday 22nd February to Wednesday 26th February 2025 in near Rzeszow, Poland.
ESPE Winter School aims to support pediatricians who have entirely or partially completed their basic paediatric training and who are now either established in, or intending to develop a deep and continuing interest in paediatric endocrinology and diabetes. The course will be held over 5 days (arrival required on 21st February and departure on 27th February 2025) and includes interactive lectures by experienced ESPE members, with the aim of covering all main topics in paediatric endocrinology. These lectures will be supplemented by small group sessions discussing teachers’ cases; and case presentations by the students.
The course also includes an introduction into clinical research with presentation by students of research proposals and projects in small groups, and presentation of selected work to the plenum.
Accommodation and meals will be provided free of charge, and travel grants will cover train or bus transport or an economy class air ticket between the participant’s home and Polish airport.
Priority will be given to applicants with evidence of a commitment to Paediatric Endocrinology through participation in clinical services or attendance at relevant meetings, and to individuals from across Central Europe, Eastern Europe and North Africa.
