ATA Mid-Year Conference for Interpreters and Medical Divisions

July 18, 2009, Washington, D.C.

At long last, we have selected Washington, D.C. as the site for the mid-year conference. As previously announced, this will be our first joint conference with the Interpreters Division, so both medical translators and interpreters will benefit from the presentations and the optional, preconference tours of Georgetown University Hospital and the National Center for State Courts.

Register online or by mail by downloading the registration form.

Preliminary Schedule: Saturday



5:00 - 7:00 Reception

Pre-Conference Tours: Friday, July 17, 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. (Free)

Georgetown University Hospital has five centers of excellence: The Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, Neurosciences, the Institute of Transplantation, Hepatobiliary Diseases, Gastroenterology, and Peripheral Vascular Surgery, in addition to a well-established International Services Department.
