ailable evidence on how to make medicines, especially essential medicines, =
affordable and accessible to the poorest populations.  Further details abou=
t the ATM RN are provided in the attached summary document.

An on-line survey is now available to provide your views on the ATM RN at h=
ttp://www.atmresearchnetworksurvey.co.uk

Please take the time to send us your comments before 30 June 2008.

We are keen to receive comments from a diverse group of people. We would th=
