New! HCA Web Seminars
This year you are able join live interactive web seminars from the comfort of your office and learn about cutting-edge research and technology in HCA. No costs or hassles of travel, no time away from the office!
While the web seminars cannot match the level of networking, scientific content, and trade show of the annual HCA meeting, they are meant to supplement it by giving you access to speakers who are not able to attend the annual meeting and to keep you updated on the latest developments throughout the year.
Register for the HCA Pre-Conference Web Seminar on 3 December 2008, and receive a $200 discount off your HCA 2009 registration fee.
