The Program Committee, chaired by Sam Hawgood has worked diligently to organize a superb scientific meeting this year. In addition to invited speakers, original research will be presented in 2020 abstracts scheduled over four days. Take a few moments to visit our web site (www.aps-spr.org) to review the entire program. We look forward to welcoming you to everyone’s favorite city, San Francisco!
In response to feedback from members, there are some new things to be aware of that we hope will make it easier for you to find your way.
Pediatric Research Abstract Issue - The Abstract Issue is more user friendly! For the first time, abstracts that are being presented include the date and session in which they will be presented. This will greatly faciliate your efforts to find out when and where abstracts are being presented.
Abstracts on Disk and On-Line - For the first time, the Abstracts-On-Disk ™ will be posted on our Website BEFORE the meeting (by April 10th). Review, search on areas of interest and create a personalized itinerary from the convenience of your office or home. The program has been improved and expanded to include ALL program information (abstract sessions, state of the art, topic symposia, seminars, SIGS, workshops and clubs).
Thanks to an educational grant from Ross Pediatrics, all pre registrants will receive the same program on CD-Rom with their registration packet in late April.
Subspecialty Tracks - We have developed tracks of interest to help you easily identify the sessions and related events of interest within each subspecialty. This should be a real time saver for our busy members!
The daily tracks are posted on our Website and will also be included for the first time in the pocket program.
Pocket Program - We are doing some new things with the Pocket Program! It has been enlarged allowing easier reading, the index has been improved and it has been reorganized to facilitate the location of the various activities held in conjunction with the PAS.
