Dear colleagues,

The Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Centre (RUNMC) has a tradition of more than 40 years in providing medical care for patients with adrenal diseases and in carrying out research in this field. To further stimulate patient care and research a number of collaborating departments within RUNMC have recently decided to establish the Radboud Adrenal Centre (RAC). The four areas of interest within RAC are pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma, congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), primary aldosteronism and hyper-/hypocortisolism.

To celebrate the opening of RAC “The First Radboud Adrenal Symposium” will be organized on Friday October 29th 2010. We are proud that a distinguished faculty of national and international speakers with extensive expertise in each of the four areas of interest will come to Nijmegen at this occasion. We expect an audience of internists, endocrinologists, paediatricians, surgeons and laboratory specialists from The Netherlands, Belgium,Germany and United Kingdom.

The organizing committee cordially invites you to come to Nijmegen on October 29th 2010.
