INVESTIGATOR MEETINGS

Northern California Consortium The UCD ADC collaborates with the UCSF and Stanford ADCs in a semi-annual, research conference called the Northern California AD Consorium.  This is a half-day meeting that rotates between UC Davis and UCSF, and each ADC is responsible for a third of the program. Topics have included formal presentation of the diverse range of research at the three Centers as well as clinical-pathological conferences on particularly challenging or illuminating case.  This consorium offers an excellent opportunity to present research, share information, and develop collaborations in a supportive environment with other ADCs

The Next Meeting is in Sacramento on Thursday, April 27 2006 from 1-4 pm at the UC Davis Rec Pool Lodge Directions
