Dear Colleagues,
It is with our great pleasure to invite you to the 7th ESRA Winter Week to be held in Grindelwald, Switzerland, January 23-28, 2011.
The aim of the ESRA Winter Week is once again to promote regional anaesthesia in the relaxed atmosphere of the Swiss Alps. The main objectives are to enhance practical knowledge and to improve the skills of anaesthesiologists and other physicians interested in regional anaesthesia and pain management. The scientific programme is a mix of state-of-the-art lectures, discussions, hands-on workshops and video presentations. The format of the programme has been specifically chosen to achieve these goals. The limited number of participants guarantees a high level of individual participation and interaction, thereby optimizing the personal benefit of this meeting.
We have chosen once more the alpine village of Grindelwald to host us, providing a magnificent background of the Wetterhorn, Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau to compliment our scientific programme. It has been developed to take place during early morning and late afternoon thereby allowing the participants to take advantage of winter sports and the many other leisure activities this region has to offer.
We extend a very warm welcome to you and we look forward to see you in Grindelwald.
