Re: [pronut-hiv] Integrating Nutrition into ARV Treatment Programs

["Andrew Offor" <kwandiee@yahoo.co.uk>]

 Dear Colleague
I wish to thank you for the invitation.Quite obviously
it may be impossible to attend this inspiring seminar
because of constraints of the relevant logistics.I
would like therefore to request that you forward some
of the presentations in forms of attachments  and  the
e-mail addresses of the presenters for opportunities
for subsequent interactions and clarifications .
I am an academic  and researcher in a Nigerian
University working in the area of Nutrition and
HIV/AIDS management.The seminar is simply one of most
important need of my research and teaching.
Please see how you can help .
