Some comments we received on our 2009 Symposium:

Registrants liked...

"...the International variety, great networking, exposure to modern TCM, helpful staff and guests in attendance."

"...the format of the morning and afternoon lectures, the networking, the free draws!"

"...there was a good variety of workshops to choose from. There seemed to be something for everyone. Great [product] samples too!"

Stay tuned for the dates for COMS 2011!
