Several UAMS specialists will also participate.

The conference begins the morning of Friday, June 3, with an introduction by John Dornhoffer, M.D., chair of the UAMS Department of Otolaryngology, following registration from 7 to 8 a.m. with a continental breakfast. Following the first day of presentations, an evening cocktail reception will be held at the Historic Arkansas Museum. The conference resumes at 8 a.m. Saturday, June, 4 and ends at noon.
