The JMA Working Group promises many exciting opportunities in the 2010 Congress in London! All our JMAs know that they qualify for sizable discounts to be part of what is arguably our profession’s most stimulating educational opportunity, so make the most of it!

After the 10 postgraduate courses on Saturday, 5th June, you are all invited to our JMA Poster Session in the Platinum Lounge on Level 2. This is a great venue for informal discussions with junior and senior researchers about our scientific findings. We also have the prize announcement and afternoon tea before the Opening Ceremony and the Welcome Party.

On Sunday, 6th June, why not make the most of the weekend with a sunrise breakfast and 21 ‘meet the expert’ seminars, a series of clinical updates that involves examining the practical aspects of allergy management, and hands-on training sessions for allergy clinic techniques. Our JMA Case Reports session, with selected cases of top medical interest, is held in the afternoon in Premier Room 2.

The JMA Educational Session on Monday, 7th June, also takes place in Premier Room 2, where renowned EAACI members will provide important career tips, and the JMA Symposium with latest breakthroughs in science is in the South Gallery Room 19+20.

On Tuesday, 8th June, we hold our JMA Business Meeting (including prize-giving) late in the afternoon in the Platinum Suite 3, ahead of the JMA social event that evening. Don’t forget that your JMA registration includes a boat trip on the Thames with food and dancing. Other participants at the Congress may accompany us on this night out, depending on availability.

The EAACI awards free communication poster and abstract prizes at the end of the Congress and proudly profiles our winners. A JMA stand and JMA hotels will also be available.

All the latest news is available on www.eaaci.net. One other thing: please be aware that there might be slight changes in the allocation of rooms for all these events, so keep your eyes peeled for news at the Congress!

Looking forward to seeing you all in London!
