Academy theme 2025
The upcoming EuroQol Academy 2025 will focus on the theme of “Bolt-ons“, with three sessions dedicated to different aspects of this theme. The first session will discuss the management and scientific frameworks guiding the development and implementation of bolt-ons, providing a structured approach to integrating new dimensions into the EQ-5D. The second session will feature presentations on recent studies that have developed and tested specific bolt-on dimensions, highlighting methodological considerations and practical insights. The final session will address the evidence and challenges associated with valuing bolt-ons, highlighting the challenges and evidence of estimating a value set for EQ-5D with bolt-ons.

Poster presentations
Guided poster sessions are scheduled for Wednesday 12th March. A moderator will lead viewers through each poster in turn, and the poster authors will be available for questions and clarifications. Each poster will be discussed for approximately 5-7 minutes. Research that aligns with the Academy meeting theme and aims of the EuroQol working groups will be eligible for consideration and may be accepted for inclusion in the poster session. We kindly invite you to submit an abstract through the Abstract Submission Portal by Monday 25 November 2024, 23.59 CET.
