Looking for chairs for organization of four newly established
"Young Investigator organized satellite meetings"
These 2 hour meetings consist of one keynote speaker and 3 other speakers that include the chair and will take place before
the official opining of the International DGZ meeting on Tuesday morning March 24. Suggested topics should not overlap with
the plenary and symposium topics. The DGZ will provide up to Euro1000 and free registration costs for the keynote speaker.
The chair and other speakers will get free registration. Chairs should be junior group leaders and should not be habilitated or
have a professorship.
Interested in organizing and chairing a DGZ satellite meeting? Please send a short proposal with a topic and key note speaker
suggestion and why you think this is a timely subject for a DGZ satellite meeting to the DGZ office (Sabine Reichel-Klingmann)
