The primary goal of the UHMS' Midwest Chapter is
to provide a forum for professional scientific growth and development of the
praticipants to improve knowledge and compentence in order to further patient
outcome. The meeting provides a basis for exchange of ideas, both scientific

The city of St. Louis was founded in 1764 by Pierre Laclède and Auguste Chouteau, and after the Louisiana Purchase, it
became a major port on the Mississippi River. Its population expanded after the American Civil War, and it
became the fourth-largest city in the United States in the late 19th century.
It seceded from St. Louis County in
1876, allowing it to become an independent city and limiting its political
boundaries. In 1904, it hosted the 1904 World's Fair and the 1904 Olympic Games.
