Good.
NS University of Glasgow
Very well organised, the talks were relevant and suitable for students at different levels. 2 of the workshops in the afternoon were very lecture based instead of more practical; the talks were great. The lecturers were all very engaging and the lectures were very interesting and useful as they covered common issues.
MF University of Glasgow
Well organised and interesting.

Well organised with a good mix of common and more academic conditions related to endocrinology.
