In addition, there was a panel discussion on future directions for the undergraduate degree in the atmospheric and marine sciences. One interesting aspect of this year's symposium was a joint session with the 10th International Conference on Interactive Information and Processing Systems for Meteorology, Oceanography, and Hydrology on new technologies for the classroom. Over 200 people representing a wide spectrum of the Society attended one or more of the sessions in this two-day conference, where they increased their awareness of the educational initiatives of members and institutions associated with the AMS.

Welcome to Montreal and the 2010 Dietitians of Canada Annual Conference Research Event. This year will be quite exciting with nearly 70 high quality research and practice presentations. Topics are varied and include: public health nutrition, food service management, food production, nutrition friendly environments, clinical and applied nutrition, and dietetic practice in various settings, such as schools, community centres, hospitals, health centres, etc. The innovation this year will be the Poster Tour that will allow each presenter to discuss the highlights of his/her research under the guidance of one of the abstract review committee members or a dedicated nutritionist or graduate student. Judging abstracts was a difficult task considering the variety of topics and the large number and high quality abstracts received this year. Members of the Committee had a wide spectrum of expertise and collaborated to share their knowledge and set strict criteria for abstract selection. They also assisted in finalizing the oral and poster presentations schedules. On behalf of the membership of Dietitians of Canada, I would like to thank the Abstracts Review Committee members who took time from their busy schedules to provide their expertise to review these abstracts: Drs. Katherine Gray-Donald and Hugues Plourde from McGill University; Drs. Irene Strychar and Marie Marquis from the Université de Montréal and Dr. Maria Kalergis from the Dairy Farmers of Canada. Join me in celebrating Canadian Dietetic Research by attending the poster sessions on Thursday and Friday (May 27 and 28) and the oral presentations on Friday May 28 in the afternoon.
