31 st ESPEN Congress The Educational <strong>Programme</strong> of ESPEN 2009 Enjoy it in Vienna, relive the experience at home! Dear Congress Participant, Once again this year we will put on our website the presentations of the Educational <strong>Programme</strong>, soon after the congress is over. This will be a great opportunity for you to go back to the lectures you have attended and even those you have missed. To open the presentations, you only need to make sure that you have Adobe Acrobat® or Adobe Reader® on your computer (the latter can be downloaded for free on www.adobe.com). Then, it's simple as 1-2-3: 1. Go to http://www.<strong>espen</strong>.org/lectures 2. Select the lecture you're interested in and click on the file name (underlined blue link) at the end of the line 3. You're done! The files contain the slides that were showed during the lecture. These files will be available at this address until January 2010. They will then be moved to the Members-Only area, along with the Istanbul, Prague and Florence lectures. Along with the LLL programme, the ESPEN Virtual Library is a real educational value for ESPEN members! We wish you a great Vienna meeting, here and at home. All the best.
