FACE members who have new research (at any stage of development) that they would like to present in a short 10-minute presentation, are invited to submit an abstract, in order to be added to the agenda. Please submit abstracts by email to susan.santiago@sickkids.ca by April 15, 2010.

The FACE Satellite meeting will be held on Sunday, June 27th from 12:15 p.m. to 1:45 pm. All FACE members (and their guests) are cordially invited to attend. There is no registration fee. Seating is limited. RSVP by May 15, 2010.
