Thirty-three years have passed since the first ESPEN Congress was organised
in Sweden, and twelve years since the ESPEN Congress was last held in
Scandinavia. We now welcome you to the 33rd Congress of Clinical Nutrition
and Metabolism (3-6 September 2011) in the lovely city of Gothenburg, to
share exciting scientific news and debates, a comprehensive educational
programme, interactions with nutrition professionals and researchers. We
also welcome you to share the friendly atmosphere and the pulse of
Gothenburg, the capital of the West Coast of Sweden.
Under the congress theme “Nutrition in translation – bridging science and
practice”, session topics will cover a broad range of scientific areas translating
into nutritional science, as well as the translation of current science into
clinical practice. We aim to provide a comprehensive programme, updating
current science and clinical practice, and for the exchange of new ideas.
Gothenburg is located in the heart of Scandinavia right between the Swedish,
Danish and Norwegian capitals. It is a safe and friendly city, with an open and
hospitable atmosphere, environmental thinking, and beautiful surroundings.
Gothenburg is also an important centre for clinical nutrition and nutrition
science at the Sahlgrenska University Hospital and the University of
Gothenburg.
Make the nutrition journey and join together for ESPEN 2011 in Gothenburg !
