President’s Invitation
Dear wrist lovers
On behalf of the Executive Board of Asia Pacific Wrist Association (APWA) and the Organizing Committee of the 2nd APWA Congress, I have the great pleasure to invite you to attend the 2nd APWA Congress in the beautiful and historical capital city of China, Beijing, on 16-17 Nov 2016.
Following the great success of the inaugural Congress in Hong Kong last November, the organizing committee headed by Dr. Shan-lin CHEN of the Beijing Ji Shui Tan Hospital is determined to escalate the 2nd APWA Congress to a new height, both on the scientific content and the social interaction. Renowned authorities in wrist surgery are invited from all over the world, on top of the elite experts in the Asia Pacific region, to deliver state-ofart lectures and keynote speeches on the most forefront area in wrist surgery and therapeutics. This will include a full day of symposia and plenary lectures on 16 November and a half-day instructional course in the morning of 17 November. The Congress will be held in conjunction with the 11th Congress of the Chinese Orthopaedic Association scheduled on 17-20 November 2016. Participants can take this precious opportunity to join in one of the biggest orthopaedic meetings in the world with huge scientific value.
We all look forward in seeing you at the 2nd APWA Congress in Beijing joining this wonderland in wrist surgery to share all the latest information and technology advances.
Prof. Dr. Pak-cheong HO,
Founding President,
Asia Pacific Wrist Association
Secretary’s Message
Dear friends and colleagues
We have witnessed the historic moment, the establishment of the Asia Pacific Wrist Association (APWA) and the inaugural congress of APWA at Hong Kong last year. During the First Congress of APWA, we are so exciting that our bid for the Second Congress of APWA was awarded. Since then, we have been working hard to stage a best possible Congress.
It is our great honor to welcome you all to the Second Congress of Asia Pacific Wrist Association, which will be held in Beijing from 15-17 November 2016. Beside the “wrist lovers” from the Asia Pacific, we have worldwide delegations from major hand & wrist Societies, Institutions and Journals. Also, you may attend several pre and post Congress events, including 2016 Beijing International Wrist Arthroscopy Workshop (15 November) and 2016 Congress of Chinese Orthopedic Association (COA) on 17-20 November.I wish the participants a very fruitful and productive Meeting this year in Beijing.
In closing, may I quote a word from the founding president of our association, Prof. PC Ho from Hong Kong Prince of Wales Hospital, “We believe as time goes on, wrist surgery will get even more exciting and fascinating. Imagine that arthroscopy becomes bread and butter for everyone, minimal invasive surgery is the norm for all, wrists no longer need to be fused, cartilage can regrow, and ligament can heal predictably. We believe that with our conjoint effort and enthusiasm, all these will no longer be dreams one day.”
Look forward to seeing you in Beijing, one of the most popular cities in the world, the capital city of six dynasties, the mysterious city defended by the Great Wall, the charming city with fabulous Chinese food.
Prof. Dr. Shan-lin CHEN,
Congress Chairman,
General Secretary of APWA,
Ji Shui Tan Hospital, Beijing
