Dear Colleague,

It is our great pleasure to invite you to Warsaw in May 2008 for the 3rd scientific conference of CEECLAM.

Our organization, founded under auspices of ICLAM has already held the first meeting in Warsaw six years ago. We have the privilege to host CEECLAM again in rapidly developing Warsaw.

Thanks to the engagement of the members of the scientific committee we are confident that you will find the proposed themes particularly topical and interesting. Prevailing life topics will be discussed during the first conference day. Disability - the crucial subject in insurance medicine, will be extensively covered the following day. The pertinent issues of the current hottest topic - health insurance will be addressed and debated during the third (Polish) day.

The visit in Warsaw in the blossoming spring-time should bring even more enjoyable experiences. We believe that the proposed social program will meet your expectations.

We hope you will enjoy the conference.
Looking forward to welcome you in Warsaw,

Vice President of CEECLAM, Dr Krzysztof Grzyliński
