Dear Friends and Colleagues

You can see we will have a very distinguished faculty in 2023. There is great excitement about the academic program and about friends and colleagues getting together again after two years of isolation. I would encourage anyone who would like to give a presentation to contact the Chairperson of the appropriate session. Your contribution would be greatly appreciated.

I shall be pleased to welcome Dr Chuck Myer who is Director of Otolaryngology at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital to our meeting. He will be giving presentations on pediatric head and neck masses, tonsillectomy pearls and pitfalls and the Ageing surgeon. I wish to thank Dr Greg Osetinsky for encouraging Chuck to attend our meeting. I also wish to thank Professor Andreas Leunig who has assembled such a brilliant rhinology faculty, that this year two sessions may be needed to cover the subject. I shall also be pleased to welcome back Ms Sallyanne Atkinson, former Lord Mayor of Brisbane, and Mr. Medi Hassan, both members of the University of Qld Brain Institute.

I shall be pleased to catch up with old friends and colleagues and to warmly welcome new attendees.

I look forward very much to this great occasion in such a beautiful place.

Yours sincerely
Bill
