This year will be the 21st edition of the Alpine colorectal meeting.
From 12th to 14th January 2020 we will meet in Valbella-Lenzerheide, which is located in a mountain resort in the canton of Graubünden, Switzerland
at the foot of the Parpaner Rothorn. The village lies in the municipality Vaz/Obervaz and is popular as skiing resort and for its lake (Heidsee),
which is frozen in winter.
The Hotel Valbella Inn, where most participants will stay, has a large modern meeting room with daylight as well as 3 cosy buildings to accommodate you.
We hope this will contribute to both the scientific and social quality of the meeting. It will give everyone the opportunity to reach the session hall easily
and to spend time discussing the issues both inside and outside the conference hall. The hotel also offers ski-in and walk-out.
The scientific content is newly chaired by Justin Davis and our excellent Program Committee. The sessions will include a video session on operative challenges, sessions on new technologies in training and mentoring, challenging colorectal dogmas and many more.
Of course we will have again all the usual great case presentations and BIG DEBATE.
At a time when there are many competing symposia, the Alpine Colorectal Meeting has a very special appeal.
The relatively small group includes some of the major opinion formers in this area, with an opportunity for lively discussion and comment not possible in the big meetings.
We hope that many colleagues will come for the first time Alpine Colorectal Meeting in the Grisons. Find out what is the breaking news in our specialty,
join in the debates and make new friends at what is simply the best boutique meeting in colorectal surgery.
Be aware that participation is limited to 250 persons.
This program has been accredited by the Swiss Society of Surgery (SSC/SGC) for up to 15 CME credits
