Benefits from Becoming an
ESSMMember
n
ESSM offers its members a permanently updated web-site
with different forums and a monthly update of the whole
scientific literature of Sexual Medicine, Andrology and rela-
ted medical disciplines.
n
ESSM provides its members quarterly newsletter, ESSM Today
which features the most recent news in the field of Sexual
Medicine and focuses on key topics of interest to physicians
in the field.
n
ESSM has supported the creation of the Multidisciplinary Joint
Committee on Sexual Medicine (MJCSM) that is working un-
der the auspices of the European Union of Medical Specialists
(UEMS). MJCSM’s objectives are to study, promote and har-
monize the highest level of Sexual Medicine in Europe – both
on the basic and postgraduate level. The MJCSM will determi-
ne the standards for training and assessment in Sexual Medi-
cine. Successful candidates will be awarded on behalf of the
MJCSM the title of “Fellow of European Committee on Sexual
Medicine (FECSM).
n
Since 2007 ESSM has offered interested ESSM members the
participation in a course of the European School of Sexual Me-
dicine. Since 2013 the course is held in Budapest with the
participation of more than 30 students from all over the world,
supervised by the School Directors Yacov Reisman and Fran-
cesca Tripodi.
n
Besides this structured course ESSM offers at its annual con-
gresses tailor-made workshops covering the key contents of
the ESSM educational program.
n
ESSM provides to its members important research grants
which all members are welcome to apply for according to
eligibility criteria. These are intended to further research into
any aspect of Sexual Medicine and are awarded with a maxi-
mum of EUR 30.000,00 each for a maximum of 18 months
project duration.
n
ESSM recognizes that basic scientists who are not actively
engaged in clinical work in sexual medicine field may have
had difficulty finding funds to attend the ESSM Annual Con-
gresses and therefore awards a number of free registration
and travel funds.
n
Fellowship support options are available either on individual
application, supported by the National Affiliated Societies or
by applying to different initiatives supported by the ESSM
and open for members to apply upon invitation.
