A message from the president

 

I am thrilled to be able to offer a full day of added value to our special guests and members at our 2025 Annual Meeting. I urge guests to come a day early and take advantage of these incredible opportunities to learn, grow, share and be inspired! Honoured to be hearing from guest speakers including Professors Bernard Fraysse and Philip Katz coming to share their expertise on Otosclerosis and the Salivary Gland. I hope you have the opportunity to attend talks by my dear friends and accomplished members of our society, Professor Jane Lea on the power of coaching and personal development and Dr. Lilly Nguyen sharing about her experience and the importance and power of mentorship. 

I am also incredibly excited to be able to offer an idea new to the CSO and one dear to my heart. One that I hope brings a new layer of value and inspires those who participate. Fir the first time at our annual meeting we areoffering the unique opportunity for mentors and mentees to connect in a full day of Mentorship dyads.
