upcoming activities
Annual Conference
The Canadian IBD Nurses (CANIBD) annual conference will be held in collaboration with the Canadian Society of Gastroenterology Nurses & Associates (CSGNA) and Crohn’s and Colitis Canada (CCC). Due to the virtual nature of this year’s events, we are holding the CANIBD conference the evening before the Meeting of the Minds conference, rather than at the same time. CANIBD will convene from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm on Thursday, November 5, 2020. In honour of the International Year of the Nurse and the Midwife, this year’s session will explore the evolution of IBD nursing over time.
Join us on Thursday, November, 5, 2020
6:00 pm to 9:00 pm EST
