Professor Linda Luxon, Dr Tony Sirimanna and I are organising a course on Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) on the 16th and 17th June 2005, in London (venue tba).
We are delighted to announce that Professors James Jerger and Susan Jerger will give the keynote lectures (one on diagnosis and one on management).
The programme will also include lectures by other speakers on APD diagnosis and management related issues, case reports, discussion with panellists and audience, and a practical workshop on how to do the tests (this will have limited places).
We also  hope to have a free papers session.
The speakers will be asked to address both paediatric and adult aspects in their talks.
Please make a note of the dates.
Please circulate this to anyone who might be interested.
Feel free to email me for an initial declaration of interest.
More details of the programme will follow shortly.
