Welcome!

Dear Friends,

It is our pleasure to welcome you all to the Garden city of India, Bangalore or Bengaluru as it now known, is a city of Spice & Ice, BT & IT, Pubs & Clubs, Fun & Fashion. It is also the Educational Hub of India and the silicon city. The conference is planned in the Silicon Hub of Bangalore at Whitefield from 24th -26th of August, 2012. We are planning to have a Cadaveric Workshop prior to the conference for a selected group who register early in the state-of-the-Art, Advance School of Learning at M.S. Ramaiah Medical College campus. The Hands on workshop on trauma and Hip will be the part of the first day program along with CME on upper limb problems.

The theme of the conference would be – “COMPLICATIONS & MANAGEMENT”. Almost every Orthopaedic specialty will be discussed during the day and night too.!

We will not promise you the moon but we will certainly provide a Feast of Academics with Spirited Enthusiasm. So fix the dates on your New Year calendar. Do come with your family and enjoy the best of Learning & Feasting.

On behalf of the host, the Karnataka Orthopaedic Association, it will be our pleasure to host you for this meet.

With best wishes for a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year.
