We do know that for many of you in-person attendance to the congress depends on receiving a scholarship (incl. nursing) and/or Young Investigator Award. We are also wary of the long process to secure a Schengen visa interview appointment and collecting the necessary documentation.

You can find useful information on the visa process and Amsterdam on our congress website here: https://siop-congress.org/general-information/
