    17-22 September 2011, Barcelona, Spain

    Final Program available here


    Who Should Attend?

    Younger candidates strongly devoted to hypertension coming both from basic research and clinical practice.

    Although there is no specific age limit, candidates below the age of 40 should be preferred.

    Please note the ESH Summer School is a once-in-a-lifetime event, which means each participant can attend the course only once in his/her life.

    Topics to be covered:

    • Basic research
    • Clinical areas

    Faculty

    Hypertension Summer School brings together a truly international faculty, offering the unique opportunity to expose the fellows to a number of excellent local speakers.

    Expenses

    • Covered by the ESH: accommodation and travel costs of the faculty; the attendees' accommodation and meals
    • Covered by National Societies of Hypertension: attendees' travel costs.

     Travel grants will be provided by the ESH for countries facing economic hardship.

     

  • How to Apply

    At least two candidates from each country (bigger countries may send more than two applications) should be nominated by National Societies of Hypertension in Europe, and to be submitted by March 31.

    Each National Society of Hypertension will be informed about the selection of candidates in early June.

    Contacts of local organizers are listed below by year.
