WELCOME MESSAGE
Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Local Organising Committee and the German Society for
Clinical Nutrition (DGEM) we would like to invite you to the 35th ESPEN
Congress 2013 held for the second time in Leipzig. Some of you may have
already participated at the 10th Congress in Leipzig in 1988. Since then Europe
has changed tremendously. 25 years on, we are grateful to have the
opportunity once again to host the ESPEN Congress in Leipzig and to share
with you this “wind of change”.
The city of Leipzig in the former GDR was the origin of the peaceful revolution
in 1989, which was the beginning of “Freiheit” (freedom) and the reunification
of Germany. This historical background creates the theme for the Congress:
“Tearing down barriers – nutrition brings people together”. You can expect an
interesting, broad and open-minded programme, offering both updated and
cutting-edge science, as well as clinical practice.
As a Congress venue, Leipzig offers a lot: one of the most modern Congress
sites in Germany, a superb infrastructure, and all the charms of an adorable city
in which you can enjoy your leisure time.
The city of Leipzig has a rich heritage in both music and the performing arts.
Names like Johann Sebastian Bach and Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy are
inseparably linked to the city. The “Gewandhaus” Concert Hall is home to a
world-class Orchestra known for its excellence in classical music performances.
In addition, one of the oldest and most famous German Boys`Choirs, the
“Thomanerchor” of the St. Thomas Church, celebrated its 800th anniversary in
2012. Its most famous choirmaster was from 1723 to 1750 none other than
Johann Sebastian Bach.
The people of Leipzig will be delighted to welcome participants from all over
the world, to share and exchange ideas, and to make their guests feel at home.
We hope to see you in Leipzig in 2013.
The Local Organising Committee

VENUE AND CONTACTS
Congress Venue
Leipziger Messe – the Leipzig Fair – dates back 800 years and is regarded as the world's oldest
commercial fair. The CCL is the core building: featuring 23 rooms, a large hall for 1,000 people, and
spacious foyers and exhibition areas, the CCL is perfect for many different and creative meeting layouts.
The city's new congress and exhibition centre was opened in April 1996. Its five exhibition halls and
the Congress Center Leipzig are equipped with state-of-the-art communication technology.

Abstracts fulfilling all criteria can be saved in “Final submission” status. Only abstracts in “Final

The abstract needs to be structured as follows:
K Rationale: this section should contain 1-2 sentences that clearly indicate the scientific question of
the study and its clinical (or other) importance.
K Methods: this section should contain sufficient information to be able to understand the
experimental design, the analytical techniques and the statistics used in the study.
K Results: this section should contain objective data to answer the scientific question(s).
K Conclusions: this section should provide only conclusions of the study directly supported by the
results, along with implications for clinical practice, avoiding speculation and overgeneralisation.
One table can be included, but the total number of cells (columns + rows) may not exceed 16. Please
note that tables may significantly reduce the number of the remaining allowed characters.

GENERAL INFORMATION
ABOUT LEIPZIG
Leipzig is located in the East of Germany, in a low-lying area in the north-western part of
Saxony by the rivers Elster, Pleisse and Parthe. Its average altitude above sea-level is 118 m.
Leipzig currently has about 500,000 inhabitants.
The city covers an area of 297.6 km2 and enjoys a generally relatively mild climate.
Leipzig is a traditional focus of traffic infrastructure. Having grown as a trade-fair and commercial centre at the crossroads of two military and commercial routes, today more than ever
the city focuses traffic routes from all directions. So there are numerous ways of getting to
Leipzig, including the Leipzig/Halle airport. Its schedule includes direct flights from/to big
European cities such as London, Istanbul, Rome, Madrid, Barcelona, Milan or Vienna as well
as some long distances destinations.
Visitors who come to Leipzig for a conference will hopefully be able to spend some leisurely
hours and dive into the charms and attractions of the host city: the unique flair, the whole
variety of things to do and to see: from the concert in the Gewandhaus Concert Hall to a
relaxed pub crawl in the evening. Visitors should not miss the architectural gems of
Renaissance, Baroque and Art Nouveau, the openness and hospitality of Leipzig people.
There are only few cities which have such a rich musical tradition as Leipzig. Johann Sebastian
Bach was the choirmaster of St. Thomas Church from 1723 to 1750. The house where Felix
Mendelssohn Bartholdy died can be visited in Leipzig. The story of Robert and Clara
Schumann is inseparably linked with Leipzig, and Richard Wagner was born in the city in
1813. Don’t miss such an opportunity to discover this brilliant city at the same time as the
rich scientific and educational programmes of the Congress.

Verkehrsbetriebe" (LVB). The current public transport tariff of „Mitteldeutscher Verkehrsverbund“ (MDV)
is valid not only within the city of Leipzig, but also throughout Central Germany. Only one ticket for
tram and bus, that means only one common tariff for all trams, buses, suburban trains, regional express

Safety
Leipzig is a safe place but you should take normal, sensible precautions to avoid mugging, bag
snatching and pick pocketing. You should be extra vigilant at airports and railway stations. Do not leave
valuables unattended. Most shops and all major taxi companies accept credit and debit cards, so there
is no need to carry a lot of cash.
