17th Annual Meeting of the European Tissue Repair Society (ETRS)

First Announcement and Call for Abstracts

Dates:: 26th to 28th September 2007
Venue:: Botley Park Country Club, Southampton. UK

"Measurements in wound healing - the conduit between the laboratory and the clinic"

The annual meeting of the ETRS is a "rialto" where basic scientists meet clinicians to exchange successes and difficulties both in the laboratory and the clinic. This is a constant cycle to promote wound healing.

In the last few years there have been lessons learnt and discoveries made which include the difficulties of getting successful bench developments into practice, the increasing clinical burden imposed by wounds and advances in tissue engineering concepts, nanotechnologies and so on.

How to harness these energies to the benefit our patient population?

The ETRS 2007 meeting in Southampton will offer a platform to basic scientists/clinician scientists as well as health economists who are all engaged in the difficult act of translating science into practice.

Southampton with an area population of 1.2 million is located in the South of England. It is very well connected by air to UK and Europe, by rail (1 hour from London Waterloo) and road (the motorway bisects the city). Southampton city is surrounded by miles of the New Forest vibrant with colours and wildlife that is exceptionally attractive in September. The Isle of Wight to the south offers a very pleasant family day for those who love sailing as well as those who just like to tour casually. To quench your thirst for medieval history, Romsey, Winchester and of course Portsmouth are all within driving distance.

The submission of Abstracts is actively encouraged. Full details and submission templates are available to download from www.etrs2007soton.com. Deadline for the submission of Abstracts: 23rd April 2007.
