On the occasion of the 20th European Colorectal Congress, we are pleased to introduce the annual ECC Visiting Fellowship.

This initiative aims to enhance surgical training, provide valuable clinical insights, foster professional networking, and encourage mutual exchange of expertise. The fellowship is designed for young surgeons with a strong interest in colorectal surgery and will be hosted by distinguished expert surgeons from the ECC Faculty.

We warmly invite you to apply for this one-week Visiting Fellowship and benefit from the opportunity to learn directly from leading masters in the field. The ECC will cover travel and accommodation expenses and facilitate close professional exchange with internationally renowned experts.

Applicants must be under 40 years of age. To apply, please submit a short letter of motivation, a brief CV, and a list of your colorectal surgeries to:

ECC.fellowship@colorectalsurgery.eu

The application deadline is 15 November 2026.
The selected fellow will be drawn during the ECC Festive Evening on Tuesday.

Please note: Applicants must be registered for both the ECC and the Festive Evening. Only applicants who are present at the Festive Evening will be eligible for consideration.
