NEWS Dr. Naidorf Honored by Israel Bonds

Continuing Education Course to Focus on Bone Repair and Regeneration This year, at their 41st annual session, the AAE will present a continuing edu- cation course on the "Biological and Clinical Aspects of Bone Repair and Regeneration". The day-long course will provide a complete update on bone, with emphasis being placed on cellular physiology and histology, bone formation and resorption, and the bio- logical parameters of bone grafting re- lative to repair and regeneration. The latter will be discussed at length and highlighted within clinically relevant parameters. Newer forms of synthetic grafting material will be discussed rela- tive to biological response and clinical usage.

Four top-notch speakers will partici- pate in the course including J.N.M. Heersche on bone histophysiology, An- tony H. Melcher on wound healing in the bone including periodontium, James T. Mellonig on biological and clinical as- pects of bone repair and regeneration and Gerald M. Bowers on correction of intrabony defects - - state of the art.

Registration packets with detailed CEC pamphlets and registration forms were mailed to members in January. Non-members are invited to request a packet by writing to the AAE Central Office at 211 East Chicago Ave., Suite 830, Chicago, IL. 60611.
