Update for 2004 Annual Meeting
Nov. 6-10 in Washington, D.C.

--The OHS Section's scientific sessions and section meetings will take place in the D.C. Convention Center, not in one of the nearby hotels. All speakers and attendees will need a badge (that is, they must be registered) to enter the Convention Center. The OHS Section has 10 free "one-day passes" to offer to speakers, such as the presenters for the "Research by the Rank-and-File" session or a session featuring high school students. If you know someone who'll need a one-day pass, please contact Celeste Monforton at <eohcnm@gwumc.edu>.

--This will be the first year that LCD projectors will be stationed in the session rooms!! (No more overhead or slide projectors.)

--The OHS Section meetings formerly called "business meetings" will now be called "Section meetings." We are hoping to eliminate the impression that the meetings are only for leadership or reserved for persons with official Section business. The first Section Meeting will be on Sunday, Nov. 7 at 9:15 a.m.

--Thanks to Kathy Kirkland, Roni Neff, Marilyn Radke and Tom Wickizer for reviewing abstracts.
