When visiting Euretina for the first time, you will notice that it might be difficult to maintain an overview over the whole programme, and interesting sessions can be easily missed. We picked a few pearls beyond the Grand Auditorium, which as a young visitor, you should definitely not miss!
E-posters
Many young researchers don’t have the possibility to present their research as live presentations. A visit at the e-poster site is a great appreciation for them and can inspire you for your own projects.
Retinaws
Have you seen “Jaws” the movie? “Retinaws” is some retinal surgery horror story case show, it’s a must see! Experienced surgeons present their cases, where all went south…
EBO-Subspeciality course (Friday)
YOURS is also active at the courses for the EBO-subspecialty exams. This course is aiming to prepare candidates for the EBO-Retina subspecialty exam, taking place for the 2nd time during this year’s EURETINA. Visit us there and get in touch!
YOURS day (Saturday)
We organized a programme with four interesting sessions (coffee/cookies/cases, science slam, symposium, and the great ophthalmologica lecture). All speakers are young ophthalmologists with a passion for retina and present their research or best case from clinics or their labs. We would love to see and meet you in one (or better all) our sessions! =)
Innovation and equipment
Do you need new diagnostic tools, equipment, or books? Are you interested in innovations? The industry site is a place, where you can have insights in the new technical and medical development. There is usually also a congress on-site discount. We can only recommend it. But be aware, that the industry have their own interests and don’t let them influence your own critical thinking, especially when you’re offered a free coffee.. 😉
Social events
The Euretina Party on Saturday is a great opportunity to get to know people from around the world, in a less formal environment.
Social media
We are continuously posting interesting content during the congress, so don’t miss our hints about what’s happening on @young.retina
Don’t hesitate to contact as for any further tips, or just for a drink =)
