Description

Aim:
The J-ESGAR Summer School is dedicated to advancing GI imaging among emerging radiologists and senior residents. Its primary objective is to enhance and standardize educational quality in GI radiology across Europe. Additionally, the Summer School aims to foster a nurturing environment that encourages collaboration and knowledge exchange among young European radiologists, furthering both their educational and research endeavours.

Structure:
The Summer School is structured as an intensive five-day program, aligning with the GI sub-specialty European curriculum. It employs innovative educational methods, such as small group teachings and case-based discussions, to ensure a dynamic and engaging learning experience. Interactivity is a key component, facilitated by experienced tutors from the ESGAR faculty, which includes both senior and junior ESGAR fellows. To continuously improve the program, a post-course evaluation questionnaire will be distributed. This feedback will help identify areas for further training and guide the development of future educational offerings.

Target Group:
Senior residents (3rd to 5th year) or young fellows, up to 35 years.
