Dear Colleague

1 Department of Education
2 Division of Sections

The American Academy of Pediatrics Department of Education and the Division of Sections are pleased to present this supplement to PEDIATRICS. This is the first supplement devoted entirely to abstracts of presentations given at the Academy's Annual Meeting. It contains a vast array of subspecialty information in a structured abstract format, which will be indexed in the journal and be retrievable through all of the document delivery systems which feature PEDIATRICS. It will also be available on the yearly CD ROM update of PEDIATRICS. In addition this publication will serve as a guide and timetable for the Academy's Section programs which will be offered at the AAP 1996 Annual Meeting to be held October 25-30 in Boston. Please remember to bring this, your complimentary copy, to the meeting! A limited number of additional copies for your personal use or distribution to colleagues will be available at the meeting.

Sections are arranged alphabetically. A Section's educational schedule appears first, followed by the complete text of the abstracts. Abstracts are identified by a number that appears in the left column of the schedule; this same number will identify the expanded text. Abstracts are numbered consecutively within each Section. Please note that the Section on Allergy, Section on Emergency Medicine, and Section on Surgery have elected to print their schedule only.

A great deal of time and effort has been volunteered by Academy Section members to develop these programs and to write and coordinate the abstracts for this special supplement.

In particular, we would like to acknowledge the contributions of Kathleen Ozmeral (editor); Michael Welch, MD (Allergy); Derek Fyfe, MD (Cardiology); Mitch Feldman, MD (Computers and Other Technologies); Brahm Goldstein, MD (Critical Care); Milton Tenenbein, MD, and Jennifer Pratt Cheney, MD (Emergency Medicine), David Aronsson, MD, and Randall Loder, MD (Orthopaedics); William Engle, MD, and Tom Wiswell, MD (Perinatal Pediatrics); N.
