About Mike Cadogan
The Society of Neuromuscular Sciences have anual conferences in August and January with a very eclectic mix. Unfortunately, they’re in Thredbo and Niseko respectively, so you have to put up with snow.
Thanks Roger
Will have to look into those conferences and see if I can make it around the world trip!
Remember the Wanaka Medical conference being particularly challenging as well…
