Epilogue

The Bergen conference also created a ‘think-tank’ for developing future treatment methods and targets from the best available knowledge. Based on feedback from both attendees and presenters, we are satisfied that the conference successfully met its objectives and was enjoyed by all who participated. We hope to see you all again at 3rd Bergen Conference in a few years time.

Yours sincerely,
