Medical Conference Rebranding Logo Needed

Hello Designers,

Rheumatology on the Beach is under going a re-branding campaign. Currently we are the second largest rheumatology conference in the United States. Our audience is Rheumatologists, health care professionals, and is sponsored by drug companies.

Our current website is http://www.rheumatologyonthebeach.com and the conference is called Rheumatology on the Beach. This is the 25th anniversary of the meeting and we are having problems with drug companies sponsoring a meeting that is beach oriented. Even though the meeting is held at a beach resort we don't want to give the impression that it's a vacation for doctors.

The new name of the conference is Congress of Clinical Rheumatology.

We are looking for a professional logo design that appeals to both physicians and to drug companies. The logo should be unique and stray away from a beach orientation.

The new logo should focus on our commitment to the being the best in continuing medical education for rheumatologists.

Requirements:

A logo that works on both light and dark backgrounds and transparent backgrounds.

A logo that looks good in black and white

A logo that is easy to read

We would like to use the logo for bags, t-shirts. (So it's needs to be able to be embroidered)

Beyond that it is up to your creativity. The logo can incorporate the anniversary year in it if you wish. It is not a requirement.
