Workshop: The Molecular
Markers of Thyroid Cancer
Sunday, April 18, 2010
11:00am – 1:00pm
Registration Fee: $50 (includes box luncheon and CME)
The field of molecular markers in thyroid cancer is
new, complex, and rapidly expanding - and may soon
change the practice of thyroid surgery. We have put
together a stellar panel of distinguished AAES
experts who will cover not only basic "Molecular
Markers 101" but also inform the savvy of important
new data in the field. You will learn about
genechip analysis, splice variant patterns, TSH
mRNA, LOH, BRAF animal models, FNA panel data, cost
efficacy & more. We are delighted to have as our
featured speaker Dr. Yuri N. Nikiforov who is a
world expert in BRAF research. The Workshop will
conclude with a Panel Discussion intended to
generate consensus on management recommendations
going forward. This is a 2.0 hour workshop for
which registration is required.

Establishing & Maintaining an Endocrine Surgery
Practice
Tuesday, April 20, 2010
11:15am – 1:30pm
Registration Fee: $50 (includes box luncheon and CME)
Back for a third year by popular demand, the AAES
Practice Management Workshop
is entitled, Establishing and Maintaining an
Endocrine Surgery Practice. This year's topics were
determined by a needs-assessment survey of our
membership and are designed to focus
more on mid-career issues. At press time, the
identities of the wise and humorous AAES colleagues
who will be speaking as experts are still top
secret, but the Workshop will feature talks
on Establishing a Multidisciplinary Thyroid Center,
Coding & Billing, Directing an ES Fellowship,
Practice Building with Referring MDs, Maintaining
Perspective in Your Time Off, as well as a Panel
Discussion. We promise you will enjoy and learn
from this 2.0 hour program. Registration is
required and the fee includes a box lunch.
