Letter of Thanks for UEG Week 2020 Reviewers

Abstract

Dear Colleagues On behalf of the UEG Scientific Committee, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you most sincerely for your contribution as an abstract reviewer for the original programme of UEG Week Virtual 2020. The abstract reviewing process is a crucial aspect, ensuring the scientific quality and relevance of UEG Week. I know just how much time and effort reviewing abstracts takes, but without your expertise we would not have achieved the excellence in the ab- stract-based sessions, and UEG Week would not be the top inter- national digestive diseases meeting that it has become today. It is encouraging to see the strength in this community, especially in a challenging year such as 2020! Thank you! We received a total of 2,332 abstracts for UEG Week 2020. In total, 1,718 abstracts were accepted, giving an acceptance rate of 73,9 %. 210 abstracts will be delivered as oral presentations and 1,508 as posters. I am even more pleased to tell you that standards have again reached a very high level and we can expect most interesting research and great presentations. This high volume and high standard confirm that UEG Week is the most important forum at which to present your best research, independent of its format. We have received 43 video cases and 249 clinical cases which were formally evaluated by the Scientific Committee for presentation. As in previous years, late breaking abstracts have been scored by the Scientific Committee. The quality of reviewing this year was excellent, but if you have any further (positive or negative) comments, please do let us know! Finally, but most importantly, thanks to all investigators both within and outside Europe who have submitted their research to the meeting, and who are contributing to making UEG Week Virtual 2020 a great success! Grow with us - Let's experience UEG's first-ever virtual congress together!
