Reflections on Louisville:  

"The keynote by Dr. Hall was particularly thought-provoking."

 

"The comaraderie in this Society is unmatched."

 

"The lectures were timely and on time.  No long over-running talks." 

 

"The mix of lectures from academics and professionals was great."

"In expecting to learn about new and cutting edge information at each IPPS conference, again my expectations were realized."
