Join the Young ISDE Committee for its first Dragons Den for young researchers at the 19th ISDE World Congress on Friday, September 8th starting at 1:45 PM. During this session early-career researchers will pitch their research projects to an international panel of experts “The Dragons” who will assess and provide feedback. The Dragons will select a winning research project to receive a small incentive prize, support with establishing a multicenter study and access to expertise and mentors throughout the project.
The committee will also be sharing information and news about Young ISDE during the session.
About the Research Projects Being Pitched
Research projects were submitted in advance and the highest scoring proposals were selected to present during this session.This initiative is intended to provide support to early career researchers who may not otherwise have access to a network, mentors or expertise.

- Contribute to the development of new knowledge and advance understanding in the field of esophageal diseases, through research and scholarship, and dissemination of findings in peer-reviewed journals and at scientific meetings.
- Promote education; the exchange of scientific and medical knowledge of the esophagus among a community of trainees and young investigators from medical, surgical, associate health groups.
- Facilitate the establishment of scientific connections between trainees, early career clinicians, and young investigators in the field.
- Advertise training and fellowship opportunities in the field of esophagus diseases internationally and enhance interdisciplinary training.
