Dear colleagues & friends,
Amsterdam Live Endoscopy will celebrate its eighth
edition this december. We are very pleased with the
continuous and growing succes of this meeting in which
we try to combine demonstration of standard and new
techniques with high quality education. Although the
meeting is successful, we decided to make some changes
to the program. Most importantly we have integrated
the ‘Meet-the-expert’ sessions in the main program
without charging separately. With this we hope to offer an even more attractive program at the same price
for everyone. Please choose your breakouts when you
register for the meeting. It will be a first come first serve
policy and we will have approximately 40 places for each
session, so please register early. We have also shortened
the time for the lectures a little bit and tried to come up
with good, clinical important subjects for these lectures.
We again have found an all-star faculty for Amsterdam
Live Endoscopy 2014. Michael Wallace (Jacksonville fl,
usa), Oliver Pech (Wiesbaden, Germany), Horst Neuhaus
(Dusseldorf, Germany), Jacques Devière, Brussels,
Belgium), Alessandro Repici (Milan, Italy) and Frank
Vleggaar (Utrecht, nl) have been faculty members for
this meeting in previous years. Siwan Thomas-Gibson
(London, uk) and Takashi Toyonaga (Kobe, Japan) will
make their first appearance in Amsterdam.
The entire local faculty, fellows and nursing staff look
forward to welcoming you all again in Amsterdam in
December 2014. We will do our utmost to make your
visit an educational one and also make sure you will
take home some new knowledge, tips and tricks.
We hope to see you in the Okura hotel on
December 15 & 16, 2014.
