17th European Congress on Obesity (ECO)

 

The excellent congress centre, Amsterdam RAI, in the cosmopolitan and colourful city of Amsterdam will help make the 17th ECO into a highly successful event.

 

This year, for the first time, some oral presentations will be combined with Review Sessions, thus giving abstract submitters more opportunity to present their abstract orally. Review Sessions traditionally comprise three invited lectures, each lasting 30 minutes. At ECO2009, Review Sessions will comprise two invited lectures but will also include two 15 minute oral presentations from selected abstracts.

 

By coming to Amsterdam you will not only enjoy an excellent scientific and social programme but also other aspects that Amsterdam has to offer like a wide variety of good restaurants, where one can eat in every language, many cultural treasures and surprisingly versatile tours like boat trips through the beautiful canals of Amsterdam.
