What is YOUPPIE?

The Young Pancreatologist Platform in Europe (YOUPPIE, the young talent group of the European Pancreatic Club, EPC) award is an honorific appointment for young clinical or basic scientists with a brilliant career in the field of pancreatology.

The YOUPPIE award represents a recognition for important achievements in scientific research as well as for an expansion of scientific knowledge and for achievements in the application of scientific research work. It provides a basis for young pancreatologists for further progress in their research work and career.

The YOUPPIE awardees (one woman and one man) will be encouraged by the EPC to consider applying for the United European Gastroenterology (UEG) Rising Star Awards; however, any application will be made on a personal basis and not on behalf of the EPC.
