Registration
REGISTRATION IS CLOSED
Dear GalNet representative,
We would like to invite you to the 2019 EGS/GalNet meeting to share and learn from the results of projects across the world. It is our pleasure to invite you to this meeting on the October 12th in Amsterdam to work on our shared aim to improve the treatment and outcome of patients with Galactosaemia.
The Dutch Galactosaemia society (GVN) is hosting the meeting again. As before, the GVN will cover the costs for the meeting, hotel room, meals and the Sunday-morning program. Please note that travelling expenses are for your own account.
We booked a nice hotel/meeting room in central Amsterdam and only 2 minutes’ walk from the railway-station Sloterdijk; trains from/to Schiphol and city-centre leave every 10 minutes.
We are still working with the board of GalNet on the final agenda, please find attached the preliminary agenda and meeting details.
Further details (final agenda, list of participants, etc.) will be sent to you in September.
Your participation would be highly appreciated. We are looking for 1 or 2 participants per country to act as delegates and coordinators.
Looking forward to your registration at your earliest convenience, so we can plan all arrangements.
If you have any questions or remarks, please feel free to contact us.
Looking forward to meeting you in Amsterdam.
Kind regards,
Prof. dr. Estela Rubio-Gozalbo Jeroen van Kempen
