We are happy to announce that back after last year's great success is the lunch time Clinical Case Competition Session. We are soliciting interesting clinical cases from residents and fellows. Three of these clinical cases will be selected for presentation during the lunch time lecture on Saturday, March 21, 2015. The "best" case will be determined and awarded based on the oral presentations. Please forward the submission application to any interested residents and fellows. Do NOT submit the clinical case using the online abstract submission. All clinical cases must be submitted by e-mail to the ESPR Meeting Coordinator for consideration. The link providing all of the case competition details is provided below for your reference.

Local Weekend Events: 

November 7-9: 
Disney's Beauty and the Beast Jr. 
“Be our guest” and step into the enchanted world of Disney's BEAUTY AND THE BEAST JR. Featuring songs from the Academy Award-winning animated feature. Audiences will be transported to the heart of a quaint French town, where Belle, a beautiful and intelligent young woman, yearns for something more than her provincial life. When her father Maurice becomes lost in the woods on the way to present his latest invention at a local fair, he seeks shelter in an old castle but is soon taken captive by the master of the house, a horrible Beast. Belle surrenders her freedom to save his life and, by taming the Beast, teaches him the meaning of love. http://www.stadiumtheatre.com/Event/402
