On behalf of the Conference Organising Committee I would like to invite you to join us in Sydney for the 19th Annual Scientific Meeting of the Australian Cardiovascular Health and Rehabilitation Association.
Our theme for this meeting is Synergy in Cardiovascular Health - Exercise and More, which encompasses the depth and breadth of 'cardiac' specialties and health providers that make Cardiovascular Health what it is today.
We are putting together a very exciting, interdisciplinary program that will allow discussion and debate on issues facing secondary prevention and managing heart disease. This program will include two innovative overseas speakers; Alex Clark from Canada and Cheryl Dennison from the US, and many more from around Australia.
The program will also be complimented by a comprehensive display area which will feature companies and organisations related to cardiovascular health and rehabilitation, showcasing their latest products and services.
The meeting dates have been chosen to complement the CSANZ meeting which will be held in Sydney at the same conference centre from the 12th - 16th August.
Please continue to visit the website and register your Expression of Interest to keep up to date with new developments.
See you in Sydney!
