15th Annual Meeting of SRNT

by Bernard LeFoll, Marcus Munafo, Robert Schnoll, & Anne McNeill

 

Dear Colleagues,

As we reach the end of summer, plans for the 15th Annual Meeting of SRNT are well underway. This year's meeting will be held jointly with SRNT-Europe. The meeting will be held just outside of Dublin, Ireland, a city that began as a Viking trading port and a walled medieval city. Dublin is now a thriving metropolis with busy streets, quaint squares, charming residential neighborhoods, world-class shopping and restaurants, unparalleled history, castles, and cathedrals, two canals, and a beautiful countryside.

Continuing in the tradition of past meetings, we anticipate cutting edge science, productive conversations with colleagues, the formation of new collaborations, and some well-earned relaxation. This year's meeting will have four tracks, including policy, pre-clinical, clinical, and public health/epidemiology. The program committee has been working hard toward selecting keynote and theme lecturers. We are excited about the list of potential speakers and anticipate that this year's lectures will be a highlight of the meeting. The speakers will be announced very soon! Mark your calendars now and save April 27th through April 30th, 2009 for the 15th Annual Meeting at the Citywest Resort, which is located just nine miles from the Dublin City Centre and 12 miles from Dublin Airport. The hotel offers two golf courses, three restaurants and lounges, and a state of the art health club, including spa services. Visit their website at http://www.citywesthotel.com . Meeting and abstract submission information will be available on SRNT's website (www.srnt.org) as it becomes available.

With your participation, the 2009 meeting will be the best yet!
