Columbia Presbyterian Celiac Education Day 2005

[celiac3270]

Hi,

Last year I went to this event in NYC--I also met Molly from this board (flagbabyds). The program is in New York City, and it's coming up pretty soon. It can't compare to the annual GIG seminar, but for a one day thing with something like 1/4 of the price tag, it's not bad at all...really fun and you will surely learn something new. I was skeptical when I went to my first conference last year...was worried of being let down and knowing everything (lol ) but it turned out I learned a lot. I don't really need to explain it, because I have links to do the talking.....

My mom and I have already registered...if anyone else is going, I would be thrilled to meet you...so definitely let me know if you're going and give a rough physical description so I might be able to recognize you.....

The 4th annual Patient Education Day at the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia is coming up soon!

Saturday, September 10th

8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Columbia University Medical Center

Hammer Building

701 West 168th Street, 4th Floor

New York, NY

Patient Education Day includes 19 educational sessions on adult and pediatric celiac disease, an extensive teen program, and children's activities throughout the day.

Complete program information and registration is available at www.celiacdiseasecenter.columbia.edu

For those of you not familiar with New York City, Columbia University Medical Center is located very near the George Washington Bridge. Driving there is easy, as the medical center is just a few blocks from Route 9A (Henry Hudson Parkway).

For further information, please contact Cynthia Beckman at the Celiac Disease Center, cb2280@columbia.edu

I really wanted to but unfortunately I can't make it. I have to meet with the rabbi for my wedding. I figure I'm really not religous but I've gotta assume cancelling plans to meet the man that is going to marry me would be slightly frowned upon

Hey, guys! It was yesterday and I really enjoyed it once again. I don't have the time to elaborate right now--just getting on quickly. The education day will be in June next year--as the International Symposium they're hosting--the largest Celiac gathering in the world that varies in venue each year. Last time it was in Ireland I heard. There are doctors, researchers, nutritionists, patients, etc.
