Today's post is on a serious subject as I want to flag up No Mind Left Behind, an international conference on autism, ADHD and other early onset neurodevelopmental disorders, which will be taking place in Glasgow on 29th and 30th March 2011.
This is not just for medical professionals, but for parents, carers, teachers - anyone who has an interest in the subject of learning difficulties or is affected by it, and so while leading practitioners in the field will present their latest findings, there will also be talks aimed at the non-specialist seeking practical solutions.
Mindroom (with which I have been involved for a long time now) has staged two major conferences before, and here we and our collaborative partner, The Swedish Child Neuropsychiatry Science Foundation, are bringing together 50 experts to debate the issues and share research, but this event will be different in that for the first time, we are able to offer a virtual conference in addition to the physical one (details on the downloadable programme).
Whether you head to Glasgow or take in the wealth of information we have to offer by way of your computer screen, No Mind Left Behind promises to be a wonderful opportunity for all concerned to increase knowledge and understanding of this widespread, important issue. Please pass on the link to anyone you think might welcome it.
