HEALTH LAW SECTION NEWSLETTER

CALL FOR AUTHORS

Since its re-introduction in 2006, the Health Law Section Newsletter has continued to grow in quality and substance.  The Member feedback has been terrific and only with the support of the Section Members will the Newsletter continue as a quality publication.

To maintain the newsletter as an informative and useful publication, the Section asks its Members to consider a feature story, practice pointer, case digest or other item for publication.  This is your opportunity to publish an article in a widely circulated publication.  The newsletter is Member supported and your help and involvement is required.  If you are interested in submitting articles for publication, please submit them to the Editor, Thomas Clark, at thomas.clark@henlaw.com.  or call 239.344.1178 to discuss ideas for articles.
