RENAL WEEKENDS
Join ASN this winter for our Annual Renal WeekEnd Meetings. Did you know that there are so many simultaneous presentations during Renal Week that even if you attended back-to-back sessions, you could only partake in about 20% of the entire program? That's why we're offering all Renal Week 2007 attendees a special, reduced rate to attend our upcoming Renal WeekEnd Meetings, which will take place in February and March of 2008. The meetings will be held in the following seven cities: New York City (February 2–3), Washington, DC (February 9–10), Los Angeles (February 16–17), Mexico City (February 23–24), Vancouver (March 1–2), Chicago (March 8–9), and Orlando (March 29–30).
New this year, all nephrology fellows are eligible to attend the Renal WeekEnd meeting of their choice for only $35! Learn more about these programs and register online at www.asn-online.org.
