      Organizer: Egyptian members of APASL
      General information: "On behalf of the Egyptian members of the Asian Pacific Association for the Study of the Liver (APASL), it is our pleasure to invite you to join us at the 3rd single topic conference of APASL which will be held in Cairo, Egypt, January 30- February 1st, 2008. APASL is currently one of the most rapidly growing associations of clinicians and researchers involved in the fight against liver diseases. More than 3800 participants had shared in the very successful last annual meeting held in Kyoto, Japan, March, 2007.For long time, Egypt has been mis-recognized as a pure African country. This is not true, we are Afro-Asians as we have a large part of our country being as part of Asia. It involves the whole area of Sinai which is present to the east of the red sea. It is interesting to notice that this area is the only geographical link between Africa a nd Asia. Therefore, it will be a great opportunity to extend our relations and friendship to our colleagues in Asia as well as the whole world.It is delightful to note that many internationally distinguished faculties have already accepted to share with us their clinical experience in liver fibrosis in the meeting.There is no doubt that your enthusiasm, your scientific achievements and your willingness to share with us the newest research results will make the Cairo meeting a great success.Cairo, the capital of Egypt is a historical, so beautiful and sunny city. Cairo has been best equipped with many high quality hotels and convention facilities. During your visit you can enjoy different cultural and historical contentment. -We look forward to welcoming you to Cairo, Egypt 2008 to share with us such fruitful meeting."
