Annual Harold C Neu Symposium and Dinner

Each year, the IDSNY sponsors a symposium. We usually have three or four speakers, followed by a cocktail hour and dinner. A short business meeting is held during dinner, and we do mean short, it averages under fifteen minutes. One of the benefits of membership is an invitation to this symposium, at no charge. You may also bring a guest. This year the symposium was held at the Farkas Auditorium in the NYU School of Medicine on April 14, 2008. Cocktails and dinner followed at the Water Club Restaurant. The 2008 Symposium was also a CME program of 3 contact hours.

We leave the 2008 Program below to let you know what the programs are like.
