ESOT 2015 will build on the recent very successful meetings in Vienna and Glasgow with all forms of modern educational and training aids in use. Besides different State of the Art sessions dealing with several, still burning questions about organ donation and transplantation, many important European contributions in the field of organ and tissue transplantation as well as procurement will be highlighted. Attention will also be given to the European view in relation to ethical and legal aspects in the field of donation and transplantation. This is Brussels calling Brussels is the thriving centre of Europe. Brussels is home to the European Commission, Parliament and NATO, a buzzing, influential city where history is made. The city is a key European commercial hub too, a base for many progressive international companies. But more than that, Brussels is a compact city, friendly, positive, cosmopolitan, easy to get around. For a major European capital, Brussels is surprisingly eco-friendly too, peppered with parks and green spaces. A walk through Brussels takes you through a potted architectural history, from ancient medieval buildings to strikingly modern edifices, taking in the Art Nouveau styling of illustrious architect Victor Horta along the way. We look forward to seeing you at a very fruitful and memorable congress in the capital of the European Union!
