UPDATE MEETING |
On behalf of the Organising Committee, I would like to welcome you to our next Update Meeting in June 2004. The time has come again when we gather to share thoughts, ideas and experiences relating to our speciality, in the beautiful city of Edinburgh. As in previous years the Meeting will offer a wide range of subjects and topical discussions.
| Following our tradition in this series, we hope to all learn more about our specialty. We hope to attract many new delegates as well as, once again, meet up with our stalwart supporters. Having reviewed participants’ comments on the 2002 Conference we hope we have provided an agenda to suit most tastes and ironed out any problems for this our 9th meeting. View the programme here. Edinburgh has proved so popular and has now become well established as our home. The city has everything you need to enjoy your stay here. The Royal College of Physicians will again be accommodating us and I am convinced that this Conference will be as successful as the previous eight. I do hope you can attend this Update Meeting and I urge you to fill in the Registration Form and encourage your colleagues to attend too. Tim Eden Organising Committee:- Tim Eden Manchester, UK |
