Our current fellows, Drs Yoder, Barnes and Von Fange, presented
posters at
"RENDEZVOUS II: An International Sports Medicine Meeting."
Held to bring together members from the sports medicine societies
represented by the Clinical Journal of Sports Medicine
(the AMSSM, the American Osteopathic Academy of
Sports Medicine, the Australasian College of
Sports Physicians and the Canadian Academy of
Sport Medicine)
this year's participants met at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. Of course, being in the
entertainment capital, everyone was obligated to make time for
entertainment, so they saw Monty Python's Spamalot
(Is it time for some diet advice now?). |
