Quay West Resort Bunker Bay

Thursday 16 February 2012

“Meeting of the minds:an informal give-and-take”

Following on from the Congress will be a one day course presented by a selection of three highly regarded speakers in the spectacular surrounds of Bunker Bay.

This course is an additional cost to the Congress Registration Fee as “Limited Attendance” will be available.

The day schedule will follow;
0900 – 1015: Dr Charles J Burstone
1015 – 1045: Morning Tea
1045 – 1200: Dr Rolf G Behrents
1200 – 1330: Lunch
1330 – 1445: Dr Lysle E Johnston Jr
1445 – 1515: Panel discussion 
1515 – 1600: Vanya Cullen and Cullen Wine Tasting

The venue is the spectacular Quay West Resort Bunker Bay, located within the Margaret River Wine Region and is approximately a 3 hour drive from Perth.  The Resort is situated on an absolute beachfront position, in a region of distinct natural beauty, bordering Cape Naturaliste National Park, and on the edge of the beautiful turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean.  A perfect location to stay on a day or two to explore the region.

Professors Behrents, Burstone and Johnston need no introduction. They are regarded as good friends to Australian orthodontics and their discipline, ambition and dedication to the speciality over the past few decades have significantly influenced how we understand and practice orthodontics today. What they have given to orthodontics only a few have accomplished and we have the opportunity to listen to all three of them in an informal setting over the course of the day at the picturesque Quay West Resort Bunker Bay. We will get to hear about their interesting lives, how they reflect on it today, their most memorable experiences both professionally and personally, what changed and shaped their goals (research, desires, ambitions) during their career, things that they would have done differently and where they think we are headed as a profession.

Special Guest Speaker

Ms Vanya Cullen
Chairperson, Cullen Wines, Margaret River, Western Australia,
Margaret River Viticulture, A brief history and tasting.

Ms Vanya Cullen has been responsible for winemaking at her family’s Wilyabrup winery since 1989 and as Managing Director since 1999. While remaining family owned, Cullen Wines has since evolved to making certified biodynamic, carbon neutral and naturally powered wines reflecting the philosophy of quality integrity and sustainability. 2011 marked the fortieth anniversary of the first plantings of vines on the Cullen family property at Wilyabrup in Margaret River. Vanya will give her insights into why and how Margaret River has become a world renowned wine producing region in such a short period of time through speaking of the 40 year journey of Cullen Wines.
