Relax in the brand new Residents and Students Lounge at ECR 2009!

Residents and students comprise a growing proportion of ECR delegates, which is something the ESR is very keen to encourage! So as a gesture to the future leaders of our departments, hospitals and societies, we have created the Residents and Students Lounge especially for them at ECR 2009.

The ECR Residents & Students Lounge provides a place to relax and network while enjoying free refreshments. The lounge is located on the right hand side of the first floor and is open Friday through Monday from 8am to 6pm and Tuesday from 8am to 12am. Relax with your colleagues, enjoy free drinks, fruit and music, and pick up your free lunch voucher.

Free registration for all Emergency Physicians for ECR 2009.

Last year’s ECR featured a premiere, as we invited a partner discipline to join us in Vienna for the first time. Numerous general practitioners from Austria accepted the invitation to exchange knowledge and experience with the goal of strengthening cooperation.

For ECR 2009 we have invited emergency medicine to be our partner discipline. Special lectures and discussions will be held in order to promote closer connections between the disciplines for the benefit of patients.

All ECR 2009 abstracts can be accessed online via the Scientific Programme Planner. This easy-to-use tool allows you to explore the entire scientific and educational programme by session type, topic and date. You can also search for abstract texts, authors and abstract titles.

In addition, the system offers a user-friendly feature to help you create your personal schedule for the whole congress, either to print out or upload to your PDA. Planning your personal ECR could not be easier!

The ECR digital preview system (EDIPS) is now online! It will enable you to prepare your presentations, upload them to the congress venue’s computer system in advance, and test their functionality right away. In addition, you will have the option to edit your presentations, check their statuses, and decide whether or not to make your presentations available (EDIPS Download).

Detailed information was sent to ECR 2009 speakers by e-mail on February 9.
