Dear
CAP member,
At the upcoming CAP meeting in Ottawa from July 12 - 16, 2008, there
will be a symposium on "Pathology in Developing Nations" (Monday
July 14 from 8:30 to 11 AM). We believe that there is a great deal of
experience among Canadian pathologists in this area. With the goal
of making our membership more aware of this experience, encouraging
interest in the subject, supporting the symposium and providing a
forum for participation, we encourage Canadian pathologists with the
relevant experience to submit an abstract for presentation at the
meeting.
The
experience could include a period of service, teaching and/or
collaborative research with pathologists/in pathology departments in
low resource countries.
The
deadline for abstract submission is February 29, 2008. Time
is short, however we encourage you to share your experience in this
stimulating subject with your national colleagues, especially in the
context of this symposium. The presentation could be in either
platform or poster format.
Please
use the instructions and the electronic submission page at
www.pathologyconference.com
Looking
forward to your attendance at the symposium and active participation
in Ottawa.
Sincerely,
Indrojit Roy, MD
Hallgrimur Benediktsson, MD
