OESO-SEMPIRE 17th World Conference | Esophagus 2026 | Versailles | June 14-17, 2026
The OESO Chat Panel format
The scientific program is based on sessions of 90 minutes (1h30).
A new, original format will be applied to 15 “Chat sessions”:
- At the start of these sessions, an informal 10-minute chat between the two chairs will enable them to introduce the questions to follow, explain their design, and discuss their terms.
This free conversation on the stage will allow the audience to grasp the reasons behind the choice of the questions that were considered to best shed light on the topic of the session.
- Six questions will follow, according to the OESO format, with answers given in 5 minutes by a speaker considered as an expert in the domain.
- After 30 minutes and 6 answers given to these questions, the speakers will join the chairs on stage, to take part in an intense 50-minute discussion between themselves and with the audience, to wind up the session.
