HCP Scholarships
EADV Symposium 2025

The Healthcare Professional Scholarship supports the participation of trainees or specialists in Dermatology and / or Venereology under 45 years of age to attend the EADV Symposium 2025.

HCP Scholarships are available to applicants worldwide and grant the recipients the EADV Symposium ticket.

Selection criteria

EADV Members and / or abstract submitters for the 2025 Symposium have priority and will be immediately selected on a first-come, first-served basis. This means that the available places might be sold out before the published deadlines.

Applications from candidates who have not submitted an abstract for the 2025 Symposium or who are not EADV members will only be reviewed after the deadline of 31 March 2025, if remaining scholarship slots are still available.

Eligibility terms

  • Must be a HealthCare Provider [See HCP definition]
  • Must be a certified Specialist in Dermatology and/or Venereology or a Resident / Trainee in these fields.
  • Must be under 45 years of age (at the time of the application)
  • Must have adequate knowledge of the English language to follow scientific discussions.
  • EADV will automatically decline all scholarship requests that do not conform to the eligibility terms.

Applicants who have already registered for the event before applying for the HCP Scholarship cannot be taken into consideration, as refunds are not possible. A candidate applying for more than one grant (e.g., EADV Scholarship, etc.) can be selected only once within the same EADV Symposium. Therefore, any other application submitted will be automatically cancelled.

Healthcare Professional definition

  1. Important note to Healthcare and Non-Healthcare Professionals
    Access to the different areas and sessions of the Symposium depends on the Healthcare Professional status.

    As a multidisciplinary audience will attend the EADV Symposium, the EADV will assign different classes to Healthcare Professionals (HCPs) and Non-Healthcare Professionals (non-HCPs) to ensure compliance with the AIFP (Asociace inovativního farmaceutického průmyslu v České republice) Code of Practice.
    Please read the description below to ensure that you (or your delegates) comply with the regulations in place.

EADV members are not automatically considered Healthcare Professionals

Please select the correct status (HCP or non-HCP) during registration.

  1. Definition
    The AIFP code defines Healthcare Professionals as follows:
    “any natural person that is a member of the medical, dental, pharmacy, or nursing professions or any other person who, in the course of his or her professional activities, may prescribe, purchase, supply, recommend or administer a Medicinal Product and whose primary practice, principal professional address or place of incorporation is in Europe.
    For the purpose of AIFP Code, the definition of HCPs includes: any official or state employee, agency or other organization (whether in the public or private sector) that may prescribe, purchase, supply, recommend or administer Medicinal Products and any employee of a Member Company whose primary occupation is that of a practicing HCP, but excludes all other employees of a Member Company and a wholesaler or distributor of Medicinal Products.”

    Medical students
    are not considered Healthcare Professionals under the current guidelines and will be automatically classified as Non-Healthcare Professionals.
  1. Industry sessions
    Satellite Symposia presenting data on the development, research, or other issues related to prescription medicine is restricted to Healthcare Professionals and Industry Participants as indicated by the Industry Session Organizer.
    All promotional materials and marketing aids related to these industry sessions should be strictly limited to HCPs.

    Industry Session organisers can limit participation to certain representative groups independently from the EADV recommendations if deemed imperative to achieving the session’s intended purpose. The organising company reserves the right to refuse single categories, particularly if they are not adequately related to the session’s objective and purpose.

    The industry session organiser is responsible for compliance with the session.
