Dear Guests,

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the National Undergraduate Musculoskeletal Conference (NUMC) 2012. We are fortunate to welcome many eminent speakers today, each of whom is here to offer their unique perspective on musculoskeletal medicine and surgery. Today's programme is designed to cover a variety of clinical and academic areas. Whether your main interests lie in rheumatology, orthopaedic surgery, general practice or any other area of medicine, it is our hope that you will find today’s events an interesting and enriching element of your training. Today’s conference is the culmination of months of planning, and has only been made possible by the enthusiasm and generosity of the speakers and skills tutors, and the support of our sponsors and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. With what promises to be a great day ahead of us, we look forward to meeting all of you and hope that you have a very enjoyable experience here at NUMC 2012
