ANNUAL REPORT 2008

The Year 2008 has been busy with a very fruitful collaboration with the Underwriters.

In February we had a very distinguished dual presentation on the `Polypill` from Sir Nicholas Wald FRS and Dr David Wald of Barts and the Royal London Hospital.

In May we had a combined half day meeting with the AMU, Association of Medical Underwriters,

which included two speakers from overseas, Dr Philip Smalley, from RGA in Canada, who spoke about HIV/ AIDS and Dr Peter Miller, from Swiss Re in Zurich, who spoke about interpreting abnormalities in liver function tests. 

In November we had Professor Nick Cheshire deliver a fascinating address entitled `Surgery for Vascular Disease: The Future is Bright, the Future’s Endovascular`.
