2018 Meeting<\/em>
\n 11th \u2013 14th October 2018<\/em>
\n Granada, Spain<\/em><\/p>\n

Introduction
\n<\/strong>ASOS was founded in 2000 by colleagues with similar interests from the United Kingdom and Spain. Since then the Society has met on a yearly basis. In 2017 the Balearic island of Mallorca held the first open meeting with great success, and in 2018 the Spanish city of Granada will hold the second meeting. We hope to maintain the same level scientific, social and cultural interests that achieved in ASOS 2017!<\/p>\n

The intention is to provide a forum where clinical experience can be openly discussed amongst colleagues in a relaxed setting, with ample time to mix socially and to explore the city and its culture.<\/p>\n

Dates<\/strong>

Venue

Granada is the capital city of the province of the same name, located in south-eastern Spain between the shores of the Mediterranean Sea and the Andalusian hinterland. The city is located at the foot of the Sierra Nevada, the highest mountain range in Western Europe outside the Alps, and boasts more than a thousand years of history. Among her secrets are included the Alhambra, the world-renowned palaces and fortresses of the Nasrid dynasty, and the historical Moorish quarter Albaicin, all protected UNESCO sites. Finally, Granada boasts a Renaissance cathedral dating from the 16th century and many other architectural monuments of great interest.<\/p>\n
