MMVR18
NextMed


Aim for Southern California in January 2011!

 

Major changes are under way for the 18th annual MMVR. The challenging economy is inspiring us to re-envision how MMVR meets the needs of its participants. The core topics remain the same but we are working to renew the presentation experience and foster new opportunities for interaction with colleagues.

MMVR18 will take place in January 2011. The Call for Presentations will be announced next spring. After assessing scenarios for a 2010 meeting in Chicago, we are taking an additional year to strengthen the conference. Our long tradition as a California event will continue.

The previously announced Call for Presentation has been suspended. Please accept our sincere apologies for any disappointment caused by this change. Researchers who submitted materials will be contacted individually.
