YOUNG INVESTIGATORS’ MEETING (YIM) ON CLL

Please note that this year’s Young Investigators‘ Meeting (YIM) on CLL, will be held on Friday, 21 September 2018 on the occasion of the International Workshop of the German CLL Study Group in Cologne, Germany.

The YIM provides the opportunity for aspiring clinical, translational and basic scientists to share and discuss their research on an international level. Senior CLL scientists are also encouraged to join the meeting and provide their own views and experiences to the discussions. By this, the YIM has become a major platform for young CLL researchers to present innovative research, receive feedback and foster new collaborations.
With this letter we invite you to register online for this year’s YIM and to submit an abstract for presentation.

All junior researchers less than 40 years of age are encouraged to submit an abstract of 500 words or less related to basic, translational or clinical research in CLL. Authors of accepted abstracts will receive a travel grant to assist in attending the meeting.

Please submit your abstract before June 11th to cll-yim-2018@uk-koeln.de cll-yim-2018@uk-koeln.de>. Selected abstracts will be announced by mid-July 2018.
More information and the option to register will be available on www.dcllsg2018.de<http://www.dcllsg2018.de> soon.
We will be delighted to welcome you at the workshop and look forward to meeting you in Cologne!
