Zpráva z akce
May 13-17th, 2015
Slavonice, Czech Republic
The first Eastern Spring School in Primary Immunodeficiencies was organized in May 2015 in Slavonice, a small city in southern Bohemia, in the Czech Republic. The school was planned as an opportunity for young colleagues, mostly ESID juniors, to join the faculty and over 4 days discuss all aspects of PIDs. The school was attended by 22 participants, especially, but not only, from Eastern European countries (Azerbajian, Belarus, Bosnia-Herzegocina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Lithuania, Malaysia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain). Ten members of faculty came from Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Slovenia and the Czech Republic.
The meeting was very intensive, comprised from 3 full days of intensive work, lectures and discussions. The most special aspect of the meeting was a very friendly atmosphere established since the beginning among faculty and participants. For majority of students it was the first opportunity to come to a school devoted to primary immunodeficiencies. Such possibility was very welcome and appreciated by all attendants. We hope that we have set up a foundation for further development of educational events targeted at a possibility to raise a level in PIDs knowledge and patient care, especially in Eastern Europe. Such education is highly needed especially now in times of fast and exciting research progress.
