ECCMID Extras


The ECCMID Science Play-Corner

 

Open call for scientific games

 

During ECCMID 2024 we are having an open call for scientific games!

 

If you are a creator or producer of a scientific game with its content based on clinical microbiology or infectious diseases, we will be promoting your scientific game at the science play corner at ECCMID!

 

The science play corner will feature:

- 5 tables with 4 seats for each player

- A small scale presentation area to present your scientific game

- A cabinet to feature your scientific game

 

The science play corner is set close to the scientific escape room and in a prominent position opposite the ESCMID World Village.

 

Promotion

 

The scientific play corner will be promoted through the running slides as well as on X (formerly Twitter) to promote the scientific games that can be played. Attendees will be able to sit back, learn, meet likeminded individuals and play your scientific games at the congress.

 

A small stage will be available for you to present your scientific game and explain the rules as we set aside a special hour that your game will be focused upon.

 

This offers you the opportunity to have your scientific game introduced primarily during its hour which can be chosen by you.

 

To signup you can go enter your scientific game:

If you require any information regarding the science play corner, feel free to contact us here: eccmidinfo[at]escmid.org (Subject line: ECCMID 2024 – Science Play Corner information)

 

Scientific Escape Room

 

The Scientific Escape Room will continue at ECCMID 2024!

 

The scientific game will be available threefold this time so those who’ve missed it will be able to join it again!

 

More details on the scientific story will be shared the closer we get to ECCMID.

 

ECCMID Art Gallery

 

ESCMID truly appreciates the creativity of our community. Because of that we will have a call again for your artwork in December 2023.

 

For the ECCMID 2024 Art Gallery we are calling for artwork under the header of ONE HEALTH, and we encourage you all to participate and submit. Prizes will be given away, including a free registration to ECCMID for the winner of the art call. Use this summer and fall to be creative and submit your work from 1 – 31 December 2023 to be included in the online art-book or even onsite on a canvas in our Art Gallery. (Submission is closed, view the winners here)
