Room: Hall 5

BOA Session

Chair: Donald Campbell

The session will host several papers selected by their TPD usually at Annual Deanery T&O Research Days around the country. Each paper is limited to trainees' research done in 'normal' training time and not done during OOPR. The research topics can be very diverse but must be related in some way to T&O.

The marking is done by the TPDs present at Congress and the winner is awarded the prize during the Awards and Medal ceremony at the Annual Congress. The winner will be able to represent the BOA and present the best abstract at the 26th EFORT Congress 2025.
