[Robby]

This is a reminder as the deadlines for abstract submission and
bursary award applications are March 31.

This annual community of practice meeting is taking place for the
fifth time and brings together a unique combination of pharmaceutical
and healthcare industry experts, principal investigators and
researchers from the academic and government sectors, and leaders from
innovative enterprises.  The smaller and more intimate meeting format
pursued has fostered the type of collaboration not always found at
large conferences.
