Notice of meeting: Tuesday 26th November 2013 - Chronic pain after ITU - does it exist? - Dr Tara Quasim

Presumably the answer is yes, otherwise Tuesday's meeting will be very short!

Dr Quasim's lecture begins at 7pm, a delicious buffet supper (cooked by Rachel's mum) will be available from 6.15pm.

If you are unable to come in person, but still would like to participate, we shall be running a live web conference of the evening. We are still working through the technicalities at our end but are confident that it will work. You will need internet access and a separate phone line. Contact JO or any of the committee if you would like an invitation for the web conference. No booking required for the meeting.

Location: Ebenezer Duncan Centre, Victoria Infirmary, G42 9TT.
