It is our pleasure to invite you to take part in the
6th Annual Clinical Research Conference
“Collaboration - The Key to Success”
Thursday 26th and Friday 27th August 2010
SkyCity Convention Centre, Auckland
New Zealand
The New Zealand Association of Clinical Research (NZACRes) was founded in August 2004 as a non-profit organisation. It is a constituent organisation of the Royal Society of New Zealand, our national Academy of Science. The aim of NZACRes is to provide a forum for clinical researchers in science, healthcare and industry in New Zealand – for exchanging experience, sharing expertise and networking.
Registration opens at noon on the first day of the Conference and you are invited to network with the Exhibition and Poster presenters over lunch before participating in interactive workshops on a variety of topics. An evening welcome function follows the workshop sessions to give you an opportunity to catch up with your colleagues and peers.
The inaugural Conference Gala Dinner (sponsored by Pharmaceutical Solutions) will be held after the cocktail function on Thursday 26th August. The keynote speaker at the Conference Dinner is New Zealander of the Year, Ray Avery, a former street kid turned inventor of medical devices that save the sight and lives of millions of the world’s poor. Live entertainment will also be provided at the Gala Dinner.
The second Conference day will include key speakers who will address a variety of topics. This year's conference will be chaired by Dr Stewart Jessamine (MedSafe) and Dr Chris Wynne (Christchurch Clinical Studies Trust). There will also be the opportunity to discuss the poster themes with the authors at break times. The meeting will conclude with the announcement of the Best Poster Award winner followed by a farewell cocktail function with an opportunity to continue networking.
Extended coffee and lunch breaks have been scheduled to ensure enough time for meeting peers and visiting the commercial exhibits.
We look forward to welcoming you to the 2010 Clinical Research conference.
