Scientific Programme
The Final programme has now gone to print and as a delegate you will have both a printed copy and a USB loaded with a PDF of this as well. This year for the first time, there will be an opportunity to have access to the scientific sessions after the conference via an on-line service. We will have a link to this after the Congress has finished.
Presenters can find full guidelines to presenting here.
Please note, there will be coach transfers arranged for delegates between conference hotels and the socientific sessions at the AECC each day.
