Information
The BRS will be hosting the European Rhinolgoic Society biannual conference in London in April 2018. This will be the biggest event the BRS has hosted and in doing so, it will bring a wealth of highly reknowned and respected speakers from the world of rhinology almost to your doorstep. This will provide a fantastic opportunity for anyone with a hint of a rhinological interest to expand their knowledge and working practice.
The BRS will again be actively involved with BACO when it is held in Manchester in 2018, with sessions allocated for BRS to run both independently and co-operatively with other subspecialties. There will be a BRS-selected keynote speakers, instructional sessions and a rhinology clinical skills station. Put the dates in your diary now.
The next Annual Meeting of the British Rhinological Society will be held at the Science Centre in Glasgow on 17th May 2019 hosted by Nick Calder and David Crampsey.
More details will be available nearer the time.
