Dear Colleagues:

Greetings from PSN! I hope that you are all well and AH1N1-free. I am very happy to inform you that the PSN Midyear Convention will be held as planned this coming October, 2009 but in a different but equally exciting venue. Due to strong security concerns the Organizing Committee in Cagayan de Oro decided to cancel the Midyear there last July 10. But PSN being a society who responds well in a crisis situation decided in an emergency meeting of the board that the PSN Midyear Convention should push through. Let us extend our warmest thanks to Dr. Gina Nazareth and our colleagues in Southern Tagalog who immediately responded to our call by taking on the challenge of organizing the midyear.

Arrangements for our 10th PSN Midyear Convention is currently being finalized and we will email/write to you the final dates and venue as soon as the new Organizing Committee makes a decision. The possible dates are October 13-15, or the original schedule of October 15-17. Venue will either be in the Taal Vista Hotel or Club Balai Isabel in Talisay, Batangas. The theme of the convention is “Clinical Nephrology: Filtering and Absorbing New Evidence”. We will have an ISN COMGAN speaker in the person of Dr. Richard Phoon from Australia who will talk about rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis and paraprotein related kidney diseases. The rest of the lectures will be given by our local colleagues. Philhealth benefits updates is also being planned.

So, please block the possible dates in your calendar and let us all look forward to an exciting midyear convention in the same old PSN tradition of combining serious, honest-to-goodness work with relaxing and camaraderie building activities.

Very truly yours,

Dolores D. Bonzon, MD

PSN President
