SIZ AWARD
The Award of the SIZ aims to promote scientific research in the field of Intensive Care Medicine. The works presented should be submitted by researchers of less than 40 years old at the submission date. The price will award an experimental or clinical work in the field of Intensive Care Medicine. The work should be either original and of high scientific quality or equivalent to a thesis for fellowship. The Award will be attributed to congratulate the author and to encourage him to pursuit a scientific activity. The jury, composed of the members of the Board of the SIZ and the President of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM), will assign the Award annually but if there is a lack of scientifically acceptable submissions, the Award may not be allowed.

Joined pop up meeting Belgian Transplant Society & SIZ - March 11th, 2020 - Flanders Meeting and Convention Centre , Koningin Astridplein 20 , 2018 Antwerpen
Dear SIZ members,
It is with pleasure that we announce that our next SIZ pop-up meeting will be done in collaboration with our colleagues from the Belgian Transplantation Society (BTS). The meeting will be in Antwerp, Wednesday 11th March 2020, Flanders Meeting and Convention Centre, Koningin Astridplein 20, 2018 Antwerpen. The whole afternoon will be dedicated to this joint program.
We think there is a need for structured collaboration in order to improve donor detection and donor management. In this exciting afternoon, we will cover all important aspects, and we are extremely happy with the covered subjects and the high quality speakers.
We hope we may welcome a lot of SIZ members for this meeting.On behalf of the SIZ board and the BTS board
