Each listed author should prepare a one sentence statement that will be published with the abstract. All disclosures should be listed within the last 3 year.
• Abstracts from commercial entities will be considered. However, abstracts reporting results from collaborative research conducted by independent (non-company) investigators and investigators who are employees of commercial entities will not be accepted unless the independent (academic, clinician and/or scientist) investigators are included as authors.
• Please make sure to state your correct e-mail After having submitted your abstract, you will receive a confirmation by e-mail with the following information:
  • reference number of your abstract (for correspondence and questions that might arise)
  • your personal user code and password.

  If you do not receive a confirmation by e-mail please contact ESGO2019@abstractserver.com.

• Should you wish to make corrections to an abstract already submitted or if you wish to submit other abstracts later, you may use your personal access code. This will shorten the submission procedure.

  Corrections to abstracts can only be made up to the deadline of 3 May 2019, 23:59h CET.

• We kindly ask you to upload a picture of the presenting author. Please prepare the photo in one of the following formats: JPG or GIF with a max. size of 1 MB. By uploading the picture you agree that the photo will be used in the Scientific Programme, Mobile App.
