Congress App
The WPA 2017 Congress App is available for free. With
this App you are able to specifically search for sessions,
lectures, speakers and abstracts as well as view the current
programme schedule. The WPA Congress App was created
for iOS and Android Systems.
We kindly ask that all German State-of-the-Art-Symposia are
being evaluated by using the App at the end of each session.
Q & A Module (Question & Answer)
Part of the WPA 2017 Congress App is the Question &
Answer Module. It enables you to ask questions and make
comments with your smartphone during lectures that will
take place in Hall B, Halls A1 to A8, Halls Helsinki 1 and 2,
Halls Paris 1 and 2, Halls Berlin 1 and 2, Halls New York
1 to 3 and Halls London 1 to 3. Your questions and com-
ments are sent to the chair of each session via a WLAN
hall network. The chair then forwards these questions or
comments to the speaker.
