31st Pharmacological and Therapeutic Society of Thailand Meeting

I just spent 3 wonderful days in Khon Kaen, Thailand at the 31st Pharmacological and Therapeutic Society of Thailand Meeting. I was there as the honoured guest of the Society to deliver the 'Chiravat Sadavongvivad Memorial Lecture was on " The ABC Transporters: Their role in determining drug resistance and drug response'. The proceedings are published in the Thai Journal of Pharmacology. For Khon Kaen University, see here.

Apart from enjoying the characteristically warm and wonderful hospitality of the hosts, it was a great time to catch up with old friendships and also on an academic front, to try and understand a bit more about Thai ideas of ethnicity issues.
