EU-ROP Newsletter - 11th edition - September 2024

What's new?

It has been a while since our last newsletter and we hope you had a good and relaxing summer time. In the last few months a lot has happened in the EU-ROP registry.

Currently, we have an incredible number of 691 patients in the database from 53 centers. Very exciting is also, that centers from Zagreb, Croatia and České Budějovice, Czech Republic have entered their first patients into the EU-ROP database, making it an incredible number of 14 different countries in the EU-ROP project. A big Thank You to everyone involved in making this database grow so fast!

 

We are excited to see what the last months of 2024 will bring.

EURETINA Congress

From September 19th to 21st the EURETINA congress was held in Barcelona, Spain. Sophie Schnorr presented data from the newest interim analysis of the EU-ROP registry in the symposium of the German retina society and was able to meet several EU-ROP study team members.
