Also
with us tonight are attorneys: Mr. Georg Abakumov
and Mr. Edward Brown.
My thanks go to the pharmaceutical companies Aventis,
Sanofi-Synthelabo, Ethicon, Endo and Pfizer for making
this evening possible. Please, visit their product displays.
At this time I would like to introduce Dr. Franklin
Michota, who will speak on the subject “New events
on DVT prophylaxis.” After his speech, we will continue
our business meeting. Without further adieu, please welcome
Dr. Michota.
(Dr.
Michota’s presentation)
Thank you, Dr. Michota, for a very
informative presentation. I would also like to thank
you for taking time out of your busy schedule to be
here with us this evening.
And now getting back to our business at hand:
Over the last year, Dr. Vinogradsky and
I spent a lot of time and effort developing the ground
for the Ohio Chapter of R-AMA – a large organized local
group of Russian-speaking physicians in the US. It was
not easy, but we are moving forward and today’s meeting
is a proof of our progress. First off all, I would like
to express my appreciation to Dr. Nikolay Vasilyev,
a researcher at the Cleveland Clinic, for accepting
a position as a Board member. He is very active on the
national level – leading the Young Researchers Committee
Project, the Scholarship Program and on top of everything
he is also the Editor-in-Chief of the R-AMA Journal. |
