Central Cardio-Respiratory Control: Future Directions Conference

2019 Central Cardio-Respiratory Control: Future Directions Conference

The School of Medical Sciences at the University of Auckland is proud to host this year’s CCRC:FD conference.

The conference provides a relaxed forum for presentation and discussion of the latest research in the field of central cardiovascular and respiratory control.

We encourage students and junior investigators to attend and present their current work; students are offered a significant discount on their registration fee and a subsidized conference dinner cost.

The first day of the conference will commence at 9:00am and will conclude with drinks and a conference dinner at a top restaurant in Auckland’s famous Viaduct Basin.

The scientific sessions on the second day will commence at 9am and conclude at 3:00pm, allowing time for Australian attendees to catch an evening flight back to Australia if they wish.

On behalf of the Organising Committee, we look forward to seeing you in November.

Local Organizing Committee: Fiona McBryde, Rohit Ramchandra, Yonis Abukar, Debra Fong, Carolyn Barrett, Julian Paton.
