ETS launches hand hygiene competition
08 September 2015
The European Tissue Symposium (ETS) has launched a student essay competition on “what is the most hygienic way to dry your hands?”
The most entertaining and compelling essay will scoop a cash prize of €1500, which will be awarded by scientists at the scientific panel meeting, taking place March 9-10, 2016 in Leuven, Belgium.
ETS has been researching the most hygienic way to dry one’s hands, resulting in peer-reviewed outcomes with the universities of Leeds and Westminster and publications in the Journal of Hospital Infection. (You can consult the information here and here)
Entries are free and will be accepted from individual residents from any country, who are registered as a student at a university or other higher education establishment.
The full rules and regulations of the competition can be consulted here: http://www.europeantissue.com/home/ets-written-essay-competition-2015/
