1st ESA Autumn Meeting 2010
It is with great pleasure that the ESA announces its first ever Autumn Meeting. It will serve as an annual satellite to the summer Euroanaesthesia congress. The Society’s intention is to extend educational activities to European countries that for practical reasons cannot accommodate meetings of the size of Euroanaesthesia. Hopefully, it will also be more convenient for some members to attend such meetings in central and eastern European cities.
