Dear colleagues,
It is my pleasure to let you know that the Organizing Committee of the 22nd European
Congress of Pathology has given us the time to hold:
Two symposia, each of 2.5 hours lecture time (a total of 5 hours)
And a full day for precongress workshop.
The general scheme of our symposium and precongress meeting has been set up now,
and I have the pleasure to let you know the details as shown below.
May I ask you to thoroughly check the listed preliminary program for your proposed
presentation. Please forget about the order of the presentations as it is not yet set up
finally.
If you have given me details of your proposed presentation, please check the names,
institution, email, title of presentation, and please fill in the time you wish.
If you have given me more crude information, please check or correct the proposed title of
your presentation and add the involved co-authors, etc.
If I have unfortunately missed your presentation, or if you still want to present your ideas or
findings, please fill in the empty chapter at the end of the session you want to participate.
If you do know colleagues, who still want to present a lecture too, please let them know
that they are still welcome to be included, provided
that I receive the registration within this form no later than July 12, 2008.
I would appreciate very much, that you confirm, modify or add your proposed presentation
at your earliest convenience, however, no later than July 12, 2008. Please note that I
have to submit our final suggestions of the program to the organizers’ committee such as I
will receive your data, i.e., this is the final call for presentations to be included in our
sessions.
I very much appreciate all your support in supporting our working group, and I certainly will
do my best that our sessions will be as successful as even possible.
With my best personal regards,
Klaus Kayser
