International Celiac Symposium Scheduled for Amsterdam in 2009

The 13th International Celiac Symposium will take place in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, in April 2009.

Once again, scientists and physicians from around the world will gather for a comprehensive update on the latest scientific and clinical developments related to the disease.

In addition, there will be a Clinical Forum for patients, celiac
societies, dieticians, nurses and other healthcare specialists.

The forum will focus on translating scientific achievements into practical solutions for patients and healthcare workers.

The symposium meetings will take place at the Muziekgebouw, Amsterdam’s new music center.

The forum events will be held next door, at the Mövenpick Hotel Amsterdam. Both venues sit beside the city's scenic River IJ.
