CONFLICT OF INTEREST DISCLOSURE I have no potential conflict of interest to report

Where did we start? “…The second (as far as anyone knows) international delirium meeting (first was 1998 in Sweden) was convened at Duke University in 2005 by an anesthesiologist at Duke. At that meeting, I met Kees Kalisvaart, David Meagher, and Alasdair MacLullich. We happened to be sitting together the last night and somebody suggested that a delirium society be set up…” Barbara Kamholz
