IMPORTANT: Note that all acceptable expenses will be covered and that all bookings (hotel and flights) have to be made through CAN via their registration Website (http://arthritisnetwork.ca/events/regform_2011.php). In blue section of the registration page ("Please check ALL that apply"), indicate what type of CaNIOS member you are and, if you are a CAN member, what type you are. You do not have any registration fees to pay.

TO ALL CaNIOS Members: Except the session entitled 'Strategic Planning Lunch' (where invitation will be sent to selected members) on Saturday October 29th, all CaNIOS members are welcome to attend the rest of the meeting. And on the same day - October 29th, you will find the session entitled 'Brain Storming Session'. Interested CaNIOS members will be given 5 minutes slots to present potential CaNIOS projects. Feel free to email Ms Cathy Chau (cchau@uhnresearch.ca) by Wednesday September 7th if you are interested to participate.

TO ALL Trainees: Please submit your abstract to Cathy before Wednesday September 7th and she will forward them to CaNIOS Scientific Committee to review. You will need to submit your abstract seperately to CAN. Please DO NOT register on CAN Website until you hear from CaNIOS Scientific Committee that your abstract has been selected. CaNIOS will provide you with a template for your posters (the use of this template is mandatory), will review and print your posters and summaries for you, and bring everything to Quebec City in time for the Training day.

We encourage you all to register ASAP via CAN's website. This is the only way that you will be able to register to our meeting this year and all bookings have to be made via their website.
