The Advances in Mineral Metabolism AIMM/ASBMR John Haddad Young
Investigators Meeting will be held Saturday, April 4 (afternoon registration,
plus an evening session) through Wednesday, April 8, 2009, in Snowmass,
Colorado. We adjusted the schedule as best we could, with limited availability
of the conference room, to take into consideration the Passover holiday.
The meeting is held in the Janss Auditorium of the Snowmass Conference
Center, in a small wraparound conference room, which can accommodate
approximately 80 people. When registration reaches that number we are unable
to accept more. The goal of this conference is to discuss important or
evolving concepts in bone biology and clinical bone disease in a small and
informal group setting. Past participants in this meeting have enjoyed the
relaxed environment and serious scientific and clinical discussions.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU
REGISTER AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE AS SPACE IS LIMITED!!
A check for the registration fee of $250
plus $50 per accompanying person over 12 years old should be made out to
AIMM and returned, along with the enclosed registration form, to Zoe Zampana, as
soon as possible.
The atmosphere is enhanced by the midday break (9:30am - 4:30pm), which
most use to enjoy a variety of activities available in the Aspen/Snowmass area,
such as downhill and cross-country skiing, tennis, hiking and relaxation. This
is a great opportunity to discuss science while having fun. Meet the professor
sessions will also be held during this timeframe. One of the enjoyable features
of
this meeting has been the ability to combine an interesting scientific medical
program with family recreation. We encourage you to bring your families with
you.
We have booked space at the
Silvertree Hotel located on the slope, at a special rate of $124/night
single or double occupancy, and at the Wildwood Lodge, immediately next
to the Conference Center, at a rate of $102/night for single or double

hotels. Children under the age of 12 stay free in parent’s room; rollaways are
