Dear fellow health care practitioners,

The Canadian Geriatrics Society will be holding its annual scientific meeting for 2010 in Ottawa at the Westin Hotel. From April 15-17th, physicians, allied health professionals and individuals dedicated to working with seniors will gather to discuss topics of interest with a focus on translating research into clinical practice. This year, we welcome Senator Sharon Carstairs as our keynote speaker.

The year 2010 marks the 30th annual meeting of the CGS and we anticipate record numbers of attendees from across Canada as we celebrate three decades of generating and converting knowledge to action.

On behalf of the organizing committee and CGS President Dr Angela Juby, I would like to thank our sponsors for their interest and generous support of this important event. I look forward to meeting with you over the event weekend and welcoming you to our nations capital.


Yours,

Nahid Azad
