The annual European Crohn’s and Colitis Organisation (ECCO) Congress is the biggest event in the inflammatory bowel disease calendar. The ECCO'22 scientific programme includes a wide range of sessions presented by some of the world’s top specialists, exploring basic science, traditional medicine and clinical practice, as well as a wealth of important new data!
Galapagos is proud to be a sponsor at ECCO'22 and to be delivering an interactive live symposium, as well as a range of other exciting activities throughout the congress. We look forward to meeting you at ECCO'22!
We may be going virtual, but we are still bringing you an unmissable event!
In a series of discursive, case-based presentations, our expert faculty will:
Throughout this event, our speakers will be joined by several special guests. IBD nurse specialist and IBD patient Kay Greveson will share her experiences of living with IBD, while Professor Dotan will bring together several members of her multidisciplinary team, including dietician Dr Lihi Godny and IBD nurse specialist Revital Barkan, to provide their perspectives on how to tackle a challenging patient case.
As well as hearing from this internationally renowned panel, our interactive agenda allows you to guide the discussion by voting for the specialties and topics of most interest to you for the MDT segment.
Don’t miss out! Join us at 18:45 CET on Thursday 17 February 2022 to gain insights from experts and ask them your questions.
