2009 World Molecular Imaging Congress
September 23-26, 2009 Montreal, Canada
WELCOME
It is with great pleasure that we invite you to participate in the upcoming 2009 World Molecular Imaging Congress (WMIC). Organizers from the Academy of Molecular Imaging (AMI), the Society for Molecular Imaging (SMI), the European Society for Molecular Imaging (ESMI), and the Federation of Asian Societies for Molecular Imaging (FASMI) are working together, with input from a scientifically diverse, international program committee, to develop a scientific program which integrates developments in imaging technologies and molecular imaging agents with applications for drug development, basic science investigations, and clinical translation.
The WMIC 2009 program will be constructed primarily on the strength of submitted abstracts. Continuing in the style of last year’s meeting, the Program committee will be integrating many of these abstracts into special sessions that bring attendees from different disciplines together for a comprehensive examination of the role of molecular imaging in particular biomedical problems.
An Excellent Meeting Venue – Montreal, Canada
The joie de vivre and warm hospitality of Montreal is legendary and just a few of the reasons why this city holds so much appeal for attendees from around the globe. The Palais des Congres de Montreal is the perfect size for our meeting. Exhibits will be right next to the educational meeting space and posters.
One-Stop Molecular Imaging Educational Technology Showcase
Industry exhibits will include the latest advances in pre-clinical and clinical imaging applications to create a "one-stop" molecular imaging educational technology showcase. The WMIC will bring together technically distinct and separate research communities that have a shared vision in the molecular imaging sciences. Building on the success of the first World Molecular Imaging Congress in Nice, we expect the attendance for the 2009 WMIC to exceed 2,000 participants from around the globe.
