We are pleased to announce that registration is now open for our next Workshop at the Crowne Plaza Brussels Airport, Brussels on 17-19 May 2022.

This hybrid workshop is available for face-to-face or remote participation.
Please note:  not all of the sessions can be streamed for remote participation. We encourage you to participate in person if you can. For the moment, we anticipate that participation in person will require you to be fully vaccinated and with a negative Covid test.

Our recent workshops have been entirely virtual, and I know that many of us are anxious to get back to the more interactive workshops of the pre-pandemic era. Nearly everyone (91%) that took part in the short poll at the end of the last workshop in October 2021 expressed a hope for some form of face-to-face component during 2022. A hybrid meeting offers us the best of both worlds:

• For those that can come to Brussels, you will benefit from us getting back to the networking and camaraderie of a face-to-face eCF meeting. Learning from each other is what we do best, and the workshop will provide opportunity for collaboration and exchange, contribution to the work of the eClinical Forum, round table discussions on hot topics and time for Q&A.  
• For those that prefer to participate virtually, are based in Asia Pacific,  or prefer the timing of the European sessions, then there is a large choice of live streamed content that will be available for you to choose from and to engage with. Some of the live streamed sessions will be recorded if we have speaker approval.

Of course, new variants might interfere with our planning and, if covid restrictions on travel and meeting together prevent us offering a face-to-face meeting, then the live stream sessions will run as outlined in the attached agenda.

We have an exciting agenda for the meeting and an outline is attached.

We encourage you and your colleagues to REGISTER NOW for the sessions that you would like to attend (https://eclinicalforum.org/forms/hybrid-workshop-brussels-17-19-may-2022 ).
Please register your interest early for places at the face-to-face meeting as this space is limited. Space within the virtual sessions is not limited and you are welcome to participate from any region.
