Introduction
Welcome to the Sleep-Related Breathing Disorders (SRBD) section
newsletter. The steering committee members are interested in hearing
more from our section members about ideas for future newsletter con-
tent, and more importantly how we can best serve you and act as a liaison
between you and the AASM Board of Directors. The SRBD section looks
forward to your suggestions and hopes to see you all at SLEEP 2012 in
Boston, Massachusetts this June 9-13. We look forward to your active
participation at our section meeting in SLEEP 2012.
