SNÄFF 2025 is co-organized by ESGBOR, the ESCMID Study Group for Lyme Borreliosis and Other Tick-Borne Diseases.

ESGBOR is a network connecting experts across Europe to advance knowledge on Lyme borreliosis and other tick-borne diseases.

An important objective for ESGBOR is to facilitate research initiatives, support young scientists and organise thematic meetings and conferences to foster knowledge exchange within the field of tick-borne diseases.

For SNÄFF 2025, ESGBOR is able to sponsor the participation fee for PhD candidates approaching their dissertation (i.e. will defend their thesis during 2025 or spring 2026) and are willing to present their PhD project during 30 minutes at the SNÄFF meeting. The PhD candidates who want to seize the opportunity for a rehearsal of their doctoral thesis defence can apply for a reduced participation fee by sending an email to abstract@commee.se including the planned date of the defence, the title of the thesis and the name(s) of the supervisor(s).

Last date for applications January 13, 2025
