EANM YIM 2015 - Open Call for EANM Young Investigators


July 16-17, 2015

EANM Executive Office, Vienna

 
The initiative Young Investigators Meeting (YIM) came from the past EANM President Prof. A. Cuocolo. The aim was to attract more young investigators and to offer them more recognition and support for the ongoing projects, as well as to foster their involvement in the field of Nuclear Medicine.

The previous EANM Young Investigators Meetings (taking place once a year since 2009) were a big success in several aspects. The participants expressed their great appreciation for the chance to meet their European peers in a relaxed and classroom size framework and to discuss diverse topics guided by the “experience and recommendations of well-known authors”.

YIM 2015

The EANM YIM 2015 is scheduled for July 16-17, 2015 at the EANM Executive Office in Vienna. The topic is “New tracers for pre-clinical and clinical use - from bench to bedside”.

The meeting will be held at the EANM Executive Office in Vienna, which draws on experience over several years in facilitating successful meetings and hosting the Nuclear Medicine community with great dedication.

The aim of this meeting is to offer to the YIM participants a framework to present and discuss their research projects within their peer group. The Chair of the EANM Drug Development Committee(Antony Gee) and the Chair of the Translational Molecular Imaging Committee (Marion de Jong) will provide guidance in the preparation of the meeting program and as moderators throughout the discussions.

We would like to emphasize that this meeting is also open to young physicists, radiopharmacists, radiochemists and biologists.

YIM participants will be hosted in Hotel City Central Wien (http://www.schick-hotels.com/city-central-hotel-wien.de.htm), which is in walking distance to the EANM Executive Office and the Inner City of Vienna.

A time-efficient schedule foresees the participants’ arrival in the early morning of Thursday. Half of the YIM Session will take place starting in the late morning of the arrival day, followed by a joint dinner. On Friday morning, the second half of the YIM will take place. Departure will be in the afternoon/evening of Friday. 50% of the meeting will be dedicated to presentations and 50% to discussion.

An amount of € 2.000 will be awarded for the best presented abstract at YIM 2015.
