Terms and conditions
During its 35th Annual Meeting in Vienna, Austria, the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) organises a project called “Young ESHRE Ambassadors” (hereafter “the ESHRE 5”).
Aims of the project
The project aims to enhance the coverage of the ESHRE Annual Meeting on social media and give a special focus on younger members of the community of reproductive health specialists.
ESHRE will invite 5 young participants (born after 23 June 1984) to tweet about the event. The ESHRE 5 should already be registered to the 35th ESHRE Annual Meeting when applying to become an ESHRE Young Ambassador. The tweets of the ESHRE 5 will be retweeted by the dedicated Twitter account @theESHRE5 and by the ESHRE main Twitter account @eshre.
