Testimonials from Summer School 2023, Seville, Spain

"In 2022 I attended the ESCMID summer school in Rome. It was an amazing experience. After this, I was awarded the TAE trainee award which gave me a chance to return to the Summer School - which I was very happy about! The faculty are knowledgeable and passionate about ID/CM, and we have many opportunities to network with and learn from, colleagues from around the world. Now I tell all my colleagues back home (in the U.K.) they must attend the Summer School”.

Joseph Donovan, United Kingdom

“Thanks again for the Summer School, the shuttles to the airports, the food treats, and more especially the possibility to interact with organizers and presenters so much! ESCMID truly manages to help us create great moments in our life, thus memories that we definitely take home and wish they could last forever”.

Danielle Domo, Italy

“ESCMID Summer School is not only a year slot that enriches with scientific updates in ID, I found it a very good place for communication and brainstorming with colleagues all over the world. Attending the Summer School for the second time, I am able to share experience with experts and colleagues in ID and CM, we make friends worldwide”.
