Ten Years Strong and Looking to the Future

Not quite sure where March went to but I've been very busy indeed working on Faculty of Travel Medicine activities.  Just published the programme for the Annual Symposium, entitled 'Ten Years Strong and Looking to the Future' being held on 6th October 2016 in Glasgow.  The FTM is 10 years old this year and in addition to the conference there will be a dinner the night before.  The programme itself is interesting and one new feature will present two Cameron Lockie Prize winners talking about the projects they undertook for their Diploma in Travel Medicine.  Cameron Lockie was a GP with a strong interest in Travel Medicine and he was largely responsible for the beginning of Travel Medicine education when he took his ideas to Scotland - the rest is history.  I feel I have a lot to be grateful to him for, and he was also my supervisor on the very first Diploma course then the Masters part of my education as well.  Today, the 'top' student of the class is awarded the Cameron Lockie Prize.

  1. I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
