The ESSO awardee will not be required to pay any registration fee for the Workshop and will also receive complimentary airline tickets and free hotel accommodation for the duration of the Workshop.
Participation is restricted.
The Programme Committee will review all the applications and accept a maximum of 75 applicants and will base its decisions in large part on the quality of the proposed protocol and on the letters submitted by the applicant and the mentor. The Education Committee of ESSO is pleased to offer a number of Training Fellowships to support trainees in surgical oncology. The aim of these fellowships is to allow young surgeons to spend time in another specialist centre to either expand their experience or learn new techniques. These fellowships are competitive and applicants require support not only from their own Head of department but also from the Head of department of the centre which they wish to visit. The successful applicant for the major Training Fellowship would be expected to write a short paper describing their training experiences and this paper would be published in the European Journal of Surgical Oncology.
