2001
Meeting - New Orleans, LA
The
TAOS Annual Meeting for 2001 took place in
New Orleans, LA last month as a satellite
function of American Academy of
Ophthalmology.
Dr. Esen Akpek of Johns Hopkins
Medical School and Dr. Robert Butner of the
University of Texas, Houston were the guest
speakers.
Drs. Akpek and Butner delivered very
informative lectures on systemic
disease-related scleritis and advances on
ARMD treatment, respectively.
The social function was lively,
primarily due to the Cajun cuisine.
|
| Another
highlight of the year for TAOS membership
was Dr. Butners recognition by the
American Academy of Ophthalmology.
Dr. Robert W. Butner, a member of the
Board of Trustees of TAOS was honored with
the Humanitarian Award of the Academy for
his voluntary ophthalmology services around
the world. In addition to his work in Bosnia, Albania, Romania and
Central Asian countries, Dr. Butner has been
a long-standing friend of Turkish
ophthalmology.
TAOS membership extends sincere
congratulations and wishes him many more
productive years in his charitable
endeavors. |
| We
look forward to seeing all of our existing
members and many newcomers in Orlando next
year.
The details of the meeting will be
announced on our web page. |
