Lille (France) - 24-27 August 2010
Deadline for abstracts 19/03/2010

The 4th European CF Young Investigator Meeting will take place in Lille (France) from the 24th to the 27th of August 2010. This scientific meeting is organized by the European cystic fibrosis patients’ organizations together with the European Cystic Fibrosis Society. It aims at fostering interactions between young scientists in order to create a long-term collaborative European network of CF investigators. The meeting will cover all CF research fields, considering basic research and clinical research.

Fifty young investigators (under 35 years old) will be selected by an international scientific committee to present their work on CF. They will be asked to give a 10 minutes’ talk and to present their results on a poster for further discussion. Senior scientists will moderate the different work sessions. Large time periods will be dedicated to networking. The scientific committee will reward the best presentation (talk + poster). This meeting provides a unique opportunity for young scientists to train themselves and share experience.

The organizing committee will offer a training course about “Presenting your scientific paper in English”.
