SAVE THE DATE!! 6th Annual Intermountain Brain Injury Conference March 23, 2012 Join us March 23, 2012 for the 6th Annual Intermountain Brain Injury Conference: Sports and Activity-Related Brain Injuries. We are pleased to have Dr. Gary Solomon from Vanderbilt University as this year's Keynote Speaker. Dr. Solomon is the Team Neuropsychologist for the Nashville Predators and the Consulting Neuropsychologist for the Tennessee Titans. He will be speaking on "Sports Concussion: From Behavior to Biochemistry", a topic that has recently been drawing national attention. Also joining us will be Jennifer Rayman of Project BRAIN, a non-profit organization designed to provide training and resources to healthcare professionals, educators, coaches, and others who are working with students with traumatic brain injuries. Ms. Rayman will be sharing new information and resources that are just now becoming available regarding brain injuries and concussions. We will also look forward to hearing from a helmet manufacturing company discussing the biochemical forces of head injury and the role of helmets in injury reduction. We hope you will join us for this very informative conference. Continuing Education Units (CEUs) and ASHA credits are available as well.
