A message from Lorna Tilley, Australian Health Outcomes Collaboration:

The program for this year's national health outcomes conference is now on our website at http://www.health.act.gov.au/c/health.

We have a very exciting program this year, so please have a look. We are also offering seven half-day preconference workshops (same venue) on 26 June; these cover a wide range of issues and are described in great detail towards the back of the program.

We would welcome submissions for poster presentations from ACQOL members (the date for submitting presentations is, of course, well past - but maybe next year?) - please contact me if you are interested. Again, there is information about poster presentations on our website.
