MMVR18
NextMed
March 10 - 13, 2010 (Dates Pending)
Chicago, USA

 

Major changes are under way for the 18th annual MMVR. The uncertain economy, researchers’ focus on grant applications, and our own desire to provide fresh content and networking opportunities have inspired us to get especially creative this year.

We are presently engaging multiple collaborations that will bring MMVR to Chicago next March. After 17 years as a January California meeting, we are excited about this new venture.

The annual Call for Presentations is being delayed. The new deadline will be mid-September 2009. The precise date will be confirmed in the near future at this website, by email broadcast, and through the traditional mailing. Submission guidelines will also be provided at that time.

Please check back soon.
