NOF Congress 2010 1. Announcement

On behalf of the Organising Committee, we are pleased to send you the first announcement of the 55th Nordic Orthopaedic Federation (NOF) Congress.

The 55th NOF Congress will take place at The Concert Hall in Aarhus, Denmark, May 5th-7th, 2010.
Furthermore, the 55th NOF Congress will be the celebration of the 90 years anniversary of NOF (Founded as a Nordic Orthopaedic Federation in Copenhagen, the 24th of May 1920).

In order to achieve effective announcement, it would be of great importance for the Organising Committee to have a contact person - a NOF Congress Ambassador - in all member countries. The Ambassador should be able to distribute information materials concerning the NOF Congress at relevant national orthopaedic meetings and facilitate an on-line web-link from the national orthopaedic society web-page to the web-page of the 55th NOF Congress. The NOF Congress will supply the Ambassador with all information and materials needed.
Please forward the name and contact information of a NOF Congress Ambassador to the NOF Congress Office in Aarhus, Demark:

Secretary Tina Stenumgaard,
Department of Orthopaedics, Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark
