There will be no outside satellite meetings. A special event this time is the Eupo course for residents in ophthalmology which will deal with the retina subspeciality. As the emphasis of the meeting is on training, the major presentations will be given by invited speakers. Of course there will be opportunities for individual participants to present their research and experience. However, since the available time for oral presentations is limited, the Executive Committee encourages participants to submit their presentations as posters.
Poster presentations are a highly attractive medium for communication of new findings.
The congress delegate will find that scientists and sponsors have joined in a cooperative effort to create a most efficient teaching service for the general ophthalmologist world wide. A teaching service not only concentrating on the meeting itself, but also on premeeting and postmeeting surveys.
