Sociedad Mexicana de Neumologia y Cirugia de Torax

Cirugia de Torax.org heads south of the border for the upcoming Sociedad Mexicana de Neumologia y Cirugia de Torax congreso (conference) this April. It’s also a chance for surgeons to find out more about the high altitude project.

The title of this post is apt in more ways that one.  The Mexican Society of Pulmonologists and Thoracic Surgeons is meeting for their 2012 annual meeting this April, and yes, Cirugia de Torax.org is going to be there.  We’re hoping to interview and talk to some of Mexico’s greatest innovators and researchers in thoracic surgery during our visit this year.

We will be also talking about the high altitude lung surgery project with interested and potential participants – including prospective timelines, data collection tools (and validity of measurements), and expected responsibilities/ duties of site participants.

This year’s conference is being held in Cancun, from April 9th thru April 13th, 2012.  Check back in April for more news and conference coverage.
