ALS Industry Partners’ Awards

BACKGROUND

To recap ‘Support an ALS Trainee’ is a scheme whereby we ask consultants, each year, to donate £10 each towards ‘Support an ALS Trainee’ on the ALS conference registration form.  Whatever amount is collected the ALS Industry Partners increase this figure by a factor of 10.  This year the beneficiaries are all registered trainee presenters of the Free Papers and DVDs.  All Trainees have been refunded their registration fees.
*registered for the ALS ASM 2011

The ALS Industry Partners who have supported this worthwhile cause are:
