COMMITTEES

Dear Colleagues,

It is my great pleasure to invite you to the 7th Asia Pacific Conference on Clinical Nutrition which will be held from 5-9 June, 2011 in Bangkok, Thailand. The conference is jointly organized by the Asia Pacific Clinical Nutrition Society (APCNS) and the Thai Clinical Nutrition Society (TCNS).

Themed “Clinical Nutrition: From Theory to Clinical Practice”, the 7th Asia Pacific Conference on Clinical Nutrition will bring together clinicians, dieticians, nutritionists, doctors, hospital pharmacists, nursing staff, others with interests in patient nutrition.

This 5-day (4-8 June) conference aims to provide participants fascinating insights, the most up-to-date multidisciplinary scientific knowledge, and practical know-how on a wide range of topics including enteral/parenteral nutrition; clinical nutrition in inflammatory diseases, allergy and immunology; micro/macronutritients in clinical practice, dietary supplements and nutraceuticals in clinical nutrition; clinical nutrition and metabolism; and commercial and infant formulas in clinical practices, clinical nutrition in pediatrics, among others. The scientific program also contains pre-conference workshops.

A commercial exhibition will also be organized alongside the conference and will feature the latest innovations and technology in the field.

Participants will also enjoy the famous warmth and hospitality Thais are known for around the world in the various social events and pre- or post-conference tours that we will arrange for everyone.

We are delighted to welcome everyone to 7th APCCN 2011 and to Bangkok!

Sincerely yours,

Dr. Prasong Tienboon MD, FRCPedT, BS, MCN (Nutrition), FICN (Nutrition), PhD (Nutrition)Chairman, Organizing Committee 7th APCCN 2011 President, Asia Pacific Clinical Nutrition Society (APCNS)President, Thai Clinical Nutrition Society (TCNS)Editor-in-chief, Thai Journal of Clinical Nutrition (TJCN)

Bangkok was founded in 1782 by the first monarch of the present Chakri dynasty. It is now the country’s

spiritual, cuftural, diplomatic, commercial and educational hub. It covers an area of more than 1,500 square kilometres, and it is home to approximately ten million people or more than 10% of the country’s population.

Over the last few decades, Thailand’s capital city, Bangkok, has changed into a modern, exciting and sophisticated city. It offers to visitors not only the cosmopolitan amenities they would expect from other big cities, but also a unique treasure trove of cultural attractions. Thailand, in the heart of Southeast Asia, was never colonised and thus kept its unique culture and heritage intact. Bangkok offers visitors the opportunity to experience fascinating glimpse of Thailand’s gentle culture amidst the bustle of a great and dynamic metropolis. This great city has had astounding success in combining the ancient and modern world.

For tourists, Bangkok has a feast of attractions to offer. The city is dotted with 400 glittering Buddhist temples of great beauty and fascination, magnificent palaces, classical dance extravaganzas, numerous shopping centres and traditional ways of life, especially along the “Venice of the East” timeless canals and the Chao Phraya River of the “River of Kings” winding through the city. It is worth taking a trip along its waters before exploring further into different canals to take a glimpse of old Bangkok.

Useful tourist information on Bangkok can be obtained from the official website of the Bangkok Tourism Division : www.bangkoktourist.com
