With the selection of the four topics for the educational sessions the category chairs Adriaan Lammertsma and Giannis Zacharakis aimed to provide you with a state-of-the-art update on relevant topics and cover emerging themes in the field.
The educational sessions were meant for juniors and seniors!
THANKS to all six participants of the EMIM 2017 Science Slam:
CONGRATULATIONS to the winner 2017: MARIEKE STAMMES!
THANKS to the young ESMI groups for the organization of the Scientific Speed-Dating, the Meet the Expert Session, and young ESMI room, your ideas, and enthusiasm!
We are happy about the ESMI's long-term co-operation with the European Society for Radiology – ESR, the European Society of Molecular and Functional Imaging in Radiology - ESMOFIR, and the European Association for Nuclear Medicine – EANM and the World Molecular Imaging Society WMIS! They contributed to the EMIM 2017 programme by organizing "Best of" focus sessions - THANKS a lot!

The ESMI Award 2017 was presented in the scope of the Opening Ceremony in Utrecht. The winner 2017 is MARKUS SCHWAIGER - congratulations! All ESMI members had been invited to nominate their favourite candidates - thanks to all of you who actively participated.
The three finalists were selected in accordance with the scores given by independent reviewers in a completely blind reviewing process. 118 young scientists applied for the YIA 2017. The winner and the finalists:
The Young Investigator Award 2017 was presented to:
The further YIA finalists:
24 thematic poster walks were scheduled with no other competing sessions in parallel. Each of the poster walks was chaired by two chair persons and resulted into an EMIM 2017 poster award.
