Guest Speaker will be our National President, Graeme Banks who is coming to Brisbane especially to attend our meeting. And, I might add, he is coming at his own expense.

Graeme has recently returned from the Retina International Congress in Helsinki which brought together most of the World's top retinal researchers. I am sure Graeme will be able to provide some interesting information about the latest research developments.

He will also talk about the need to urgently establish a Inherited Retinal Disease Family Testing Program throughout Australia to take advantage of any forthcoming genetic treatments.

The program would record the entire family history and include blood or saliva samples. It is a very expensive but much-needed program that all of us with an inherited retinal eye disease will want to get involved with.

This will be a very well-attended meeting. It is essential you contact the office to advise of your attendance and I suggest you do so as soon as possible.

I, and the entire Management Committee, look forward to seeing you there.
