Interactive Expert Exchange (IEE) sessions: What are they and why should you attend?

The 17th EFORT Annual Congress to be held in Geneva from 1 to 3 June 2016 will host eight Interactive Expert Exchange (IEE) sessions targeted for confirmed specialists and senior consultants.

diagnosing

Each one of the Interactive Expert Exchange (IEE) sessions lasts 2 hours, including 1 hour for the session and 1 hour for the discussion. The IEE format allows a direct and broad interaction between faculty members with an in-depth expertise in a given topic and includes a limited group of participants.

The aim is to allow a high involvement of specialists with a very specific expertise and to analyze the evolution and changes in the medical opinion of a target audience. IEE sessions could be associated with a “closed” discussion within a small group of surgeons in a more informal set-up.

The IEEs are conducted by five faculty members who form a discussion panel which introduces specific cases related to the main topic of the session. The IEE session structure is divided as follows:

1st Part - Introduction (10 min): Moderator introduces five topics and audience answers up to ten open questions during an initial voting session.

2nd Part - Presentation (50 min): Speakers present evidence linked to each topic and to the questions which have been addressed previously as a theoretical symposium.

3rd Part - Discussion (1 hour): Each speaker discusses cases related to their topic and introduces the question What would you do? to promote the input of the audience. In addition, a group of challengers are invited to interact. A conclusion is formulated after an exchange of opinions and a second voting session. IEE sessions in Geneva are:
