Subject: Announcing the 12th annual retreat of applied immunohistochemistry and 
molecular pathology at the beautiful Marriott, Key Largo, FL

Dear colleagues at IHC Resource Group,

Following pre-hurricane preparation and 2 weeks of lack of electricity 
post-hurricane, we’re finally able to get our lives back on track, hence this 
delayed announcement for the 12th annual AIMP retreat. Please forward this 
email to as many folks as you can. Those of you who attended previous retreats 
will receive a decent discount as specified on the website.

Please let me know if you have any questions. I hope to see you in the FL Keyes 
in February.

Best regards,

Hadi
