About ISOQOL / General Information About ISOQOL ISOQOL Mission To advance the scientific study of health-related quality of life and other patient-centered outcomes to identify effective interventions, enhance the quality of health care and promote the health of populations. ISOQOL Special Interest Groups Special Interest Groups have been established to facilitate communications between researchers with specific interests, ranging from methodology (e.g. clinical applications; cross-cultural research and translation methods), to applications of QoL in particular populations (e.g., HIV/AIDS). For more information, visit our website at www.isoqol.org, or attend the SIG meetings while in New Orleans. ISOQOL Committees ISOQOL members are encouraged to serve on the following committees and subcommittees: Membership; Communications: Newsletter, Website; Finances and Budget Planning: Fundraising and Grantwriting; Education: Scholarships, Workshops; Governance; Meetings Policy, Planning and Evaluation; Scientific Program; Strategic Partnerships; and Industry Advisory. General Information Conference Venue All plenary, invited, oral & poster sessions and training workshops will take place at the Hilton Metropole. See page 63 for the hotel floor plans. Registration Registration fees include: participation in the Conference and access to the exhibition area; abstracts and program; Welcome Reception on Wednesday; refreshments/coffee breaks on Thursday, Friday and Saturday;and lunch on Friday for those who have registered for the Business Meeting. Workshop attendance is separate from the regular conference registration, and requires a separate registration. If you are registered for a workshop (or two), there will be a label on your registration envelope which will indicate which workshop(s) you are scheduled to attend. There may be limited availability if you would like to sign up on-site for a workshop – please visit the ISOQOL Registration Desk in the Room for more information. Opening Reception (Wednesday, October 27, 5:30 - 7:00 pm) An opening reception will be held in the Balmoral Suite. Start the meeting by visiting with old friends and meeting new colleagues. Poster Sessions The Poster Sessions will take place in the Viscount Suite. Each poster has been assigned a specific number, which can be found in the program just before the abstract title. Each poster station will be numbered— please mount your poster at the correct poster number/station. Important Information on Poster Tours This year, the Program Committee will be offering “Poster Tours” during the Meet the Author sessions on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. These tours will be led by an expert who will walk with a group of interested participants to selected posters and discuss the study and its findings with the author and the tour participants. Poster Tours will begin 15 minutes into the Poster Sessions and will last approximately 30 minutes. The tours are as follows: Thursday: general methods (led by Jeff Sloan) and clinical (led by Ron Hays); Friday: health policy (led by Albert Wu) and clinical (led by Carolyn Schwartz); and Saturday: pediatrics (led by Anne Riley) and cancer (led by Galina Velikova). Participants should meet by the Message Board at the ISOQOL Registration Desk at the beginning of the poster session in order to join the tour. See the program for the time of each Poster Tour session. 7
