Schedule for the ISMHO Online Clinical Case Study Group

(our group's home page at the egroups site)


Each case presentation lasts for two weeks, starting on a Monday. If you haven't already selected a date for your presentation, please contact me to let me know what date is good for you (suler@mindspring.com). I'll update this list as quickly as I can, but please keep in mind that you might request a date that appears to be open, but in fact someone already requested that date and I haven't yet updated this list. If you like, send me several possible dates, rank ordered according to your preference. Also, if you'd like to trade places with someone, contact them and let me know if you made any changes..... Thanks everyone!
