E CPEuropean Society of Clinical Pharmacy
European Society of Clinical Pharmacy (ESCP)The European Society of Clinical Pharmacy (ESCP) was founded in October 1979 during the 8th European Symposium on clinical pharmacy in lyon, france. the objective of the Society is to develop and promote the rational and appropriate use of drugs and medical devices for the benefit of individuals and of society. Each year the Society organises an Annual Symposium, usually held in October. At this Symposium, papers in the field of pharmacotherapy, pharmacokinetics, clinical practice and various other subjects related to the aims of EScp are presented.

Dear Colleagues
On behalf of the European Society of Clinical Pharmacy and the Norwegian Associa-tion of Hospital Pharmacists, we proudly invite you to participate in the 45th ESCP symposium in Oslo, Norway, on October 5th–7th 2016. For the second time, Norway is proud of hosting ESCP in Oslo. The main theme is “Clinical pharmacy tackling inequalities and access to health care”.Clinical pharmacists are frequently asked to advice on appropriate therapies, from either pharmaceutical/medical or economic perspectives. It is ethically challenging to arrive at appropriate decisions, especially when the outcome is uncertain, the medicine expensive and the budget limited. The theme of our symposium reflects the increasingly widening gap between what is technologically possible to achieve with medicines, their increasing cost, and what is affordable to society and indi-vidual patients. The last day of the symposium concerns long-term conditions in children and antimicrobial resistance, two major public health issues where appropriate use of medicines is vital to achieve good outcomes for patients and the society. We hope the extensive symposium program will support you in providing good pharmaceutical care, give insight in innovative clinical pharmacy developments, and inspire you on how to tackle challenges of inequalities and access to health care.We invite you to discuss all these topics in Oslo, so we can make the best decisions according to patients’ and society’s needs.

iesawards & ContrIbutIon from PartICIPants
ESCP Poster Award and oral Commu-nication Award 2016 The ESCP will present an award for the best poster and the best oral commu-nication presented during the Sym-posium. Everyone is invited to submit abstracts for consideration. The award winners will be announced during the Closing Ceremony on Friday.
Criteria for Award winners The jury will review the submitted ab-stracts according to the selection cri-teria for award winners. These criteria are applicable for both the ESCP Poster Award and Oral Communication Award. They are: 1. Originality and aim: valid innova-tive work is valued over more routine methods; new findings are valued over a confirmation of old findings, un-less controversial. The aim of the work should be clear. 2. Design of a study or service: the study or service should be described in suf-ficient detail to allow understanding of its purpose and general structure; the objectives and methods should be clearly defined. 3. Results: results or accomplishments should be stated concisely and should relate to the original aim and objectives. Final results and accomplishments are rated more highly than interim reports. 4. Conclusions: conclusions should ad-
dress the aim and objectives and should follow logically from the re-sults; the utility of the data and their potential role in the management of patients should be emphasised.
5. Value to clinical pharmacy: a subject is of practical significance if it stimu-lates discussion among clinical phar-macists. The poster or oral communica-tion can describe a novel approach or technique in practice or develop the role of the clinical pharmacist in the care of patients.
The deadline for submission of ab-stracts: 11 July 2016, midnight CET. Abstracts submitted after the deadline will not be accepted.
SubmissionAll participants of the symposium are in-vited to make submissions for adjudica-tion by the Scientific committee of the symposium. The Committee will accept or reject the work on the basis of the structured abstract. All accepted submis-sions, except oral communications, will be presented in poster format. Acceptance or rejection will be sent to the authors on 26 August 2016. After acceptance, authors are entitled to register at the early-bird-fee for another 17 days: deadline 12 September 2015.

GeneralitiesContrIbutIon from PartICIPants
How to Submit an AbstractAbstracts may only be submitted elec-tronically via www.escpweb.org. Care-fully fill in the online form, providing all requested information. The deadline for submission is the 11th July 2016, midnight CET. Abstracts submitted after the deadline will not be accepted.
Poster Presentation and DisplayPosters related to different subjects with-in the scope of clinical pharmacy will be displayed at the symposium from 5 October, 10 am, to 7 October, 2 pm. Accepted submissions will be presented as posters. Selected submissions con-sidered to have especially broad appeal may be assigned to a poster discussion forum or an oral communication. If an abstract has been accepted for presenta-tion as an oral communication, authors are not required to present their work also as a poster. Authors will be asked to be present at their poster during the coffee breaks. The maximum size of the poster is 90 cm wide by 135 cm high. Adhesive material for poster presenters is provided by the organisers.
Poster Discussion ForumsThis year the poster presentations shall are to be given in a “Pecha Kucha 20x20” format. The authors will also present posters in the poster area.
Pecha Kucha is a simple presentation format where you show 20 power-point images, each for 20 seconds. The images advance automatically and you talk along to the images. This leaves the presenter a total of 7 minutes to get the message across to the audience. The format, which keeps presentations concise and structured, should use less text and more images than usually seen in academic presentation. The idea is to really focus on the main message from your research and present them in an engaging way. There will be no time for discussions with questions and answer, however, in your Pecha Kucha presenta-tion, you should engage the audience to get interested in your research. The will be able to come and talk to you in the poster exhibition area or catch up with you in the coffee breaks. The inter-net has numerous examples of how to make a Pecha Kucha presentation, here is a link to two examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZU40OnYv1A h t t p s : / / w w w . y o u t u b e . c o m /watch?v=32WEzM3LFhw .
Oral CommunicationsOral communications consist of 15-min-ute presentations by the authors on the contents of their abstracts, including 5-minute discussions with questions and answers. Authors are not required

to present their work also as a poster. ESCP would like to assist in the educa-tion of clinical pharmacists in develop-ing countries. A way of doing this is to make the ESCP Symposia more accessi-ble for pharmacists from these countries. ESCP therefore offers financial support, consisting of free registration to the 45th ESCP European Symposium on Clinical Pharmacy. The pharmacist who requests financial assistance should live and work in a developing country. In Table 1 you will find a listing of countries not eligible, according to the World Bank list
of economies July 2015.An additional condition is that the appli-cant must be active in developing clini-cal pharmacy in his/her country. As this would be difficult to measure, ESCP re-quests that: The pharmacist has an abstract sub-
mitted and accepted for presentation at the symposium The pharmacist writes a short article
on the symposium, which should be published in her/his national journal. A copy of this publication should be sent to the ESCP International Office

About OsloOslo is the oldest of the Scandinavian capitals, and its history goes back 1000 years, to the time when the first set-tlements were built at the inlet of the Oslo fjord. The capital of Norway is also its largest city. Oslo has over 600,000 inhabitants and covers 454 square kilo-
metres, 242 of which are forests.The capital is the seat of the Norwegian Government and the Norwegian Parlia-ment, and the home of Norway's King Harald V and Queen Sonja, The Royal Palace, is located at the end of Oslo's main street, Karl Johans gate.If you need a timeout from the con-gress, visit cultural institutions such as• The National Museum of Art, Archi-
tecture and Design• The Astrup Fearnley Museum• The Norwegian Opera and Ballet.
Location, geography and climateOslo is located innermost in the 100-kil-ometre-long Oslofjord, which is home to 40 islands. Over half of the munici-pality of Oslo is covered by forests and parks, making Oslo a truly green city.Oslo’s climate is milder than its latitude might indicate. Summer temperatures often equal those of cities much further south, yet the winters are cold enough to make Oslo a great skiing destination.To find out more about Oslo, please check out some of the following web-sites:

The Steve Hudson Memorial LectureWednesday, 5 October, 11:30 – 12:00Professor Steve Hudson passed away on
November 21st, 2010. Steve’s dedica-tion to education and developing young minds was one of his greatest legacies. He introduced a clear vision on what he called Integrated Pharmaceutical Care, a philosophy of practice to the advance-ment of patient care in which the phar-macist, patient and physician collaborate in assessing patient needs, determining care issues and developing a care plan. By doing so Steve developed lifelong friend-ships throughout the world.We believe that the greatest tribute our profession can pay to Steve is to continue to develop our hospital and community
pharmacy practice to realize his vision. Therefore the Gen-eral Committee has decided to install the Steve Hudson Lecture, as an integral part of ESCP’s annual meeting. For this lecture ESCP invites a speaker, who will be able to show his or her work in Pharmaceutical Care Practice, in particular to illustrate the achievements in pharmacy practice built on Steve’s vision.
