Please join us for the 2nd Annual Society for Participatory Medicine Cocktail Reception, taking place on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at the Liberty Hotel in Boston (http://www.libertyhotel.com/) from 6:00 – 8:00 pm.

If you’re attending the Connected Health Symposium in Boston this week, we invite you to share your ideas and enjoy a wine bottle service, hors d’oeuvres and cash bar at one of Boston’s finest luxury hotels. This is an opportunity for people who might be interested in becoming a member of the Society to become better acquainted with the Participatory community. We also encourage you to bring guests that would be interested in learning about the Society by talking with us one-on-one.

You must RSVP if you want to attend this reception to treasurer@participatorymedicine.org. (If you’ve already RSVP’d, no need to do so again.)
