STOP PRESS!!!
We are excited to let you know that there has been so much interest generated in this year’s NAWRDES Forum that it has become apparent that there is substantial exciting work being performed in the area of Pain and Pain Management that could not be included in the Forum Program.
In an attempt to get this work out in front of a wider audience we invite you to submit a 3 slide, 3 minute project “pitch” which will be hosted at online and will be referenced during the Forum and in any written communications. This will give you and your students an opportunity to share your key discoveries and to start the important conversations about your exciting work. We want to hear from everyone.
Be creative, be accessible and share of the impact of your work.
Please submit a link to your 3 slide - 3 minute recorded pitch by COB Nov 20 to Jeremy Skuse
Looking forward to hearing from you.
