ESE Young Investigator Award
Six ESE Young Investigator awards, worth €3000 each, are awarded to researchers who submit abstracts (basic or clinical) to the annual European Congress of Endocrinology.
The awards are based on the achieved abstract scores, as determined by the ECE abstract review committee; the final decision is made by the ECE Programme Organising Committee.
Successful applicants must be a member of ESE and less than 35 years of age at the time of the meeting. Applicants must indicate on the abstract form whether they wish to be considered for an ESE Young Investigator Award.
The Young Investigator awards are generously sponsored by Novartis.
