The North American Brain Injury Society is pleased to announce details for the 22nd Conference on Legal Issues in Brain Injury which will be held October 14-17, 2009, at the Austin Downtown Hilton Hotel.  Attorneys can expect the very latest information on brain injury litigation at this three-day hands-on conference considered a “must attend” event for all professionals involved in brain injury litigation.

Thanks to the support of Lash and Associates Publishing/Training and the Sarah Jane Brain Project, NABIS is pleased to present an optional and special one-day pre-conference symposium that will present a plan for a comprehensive, integrative, accessible, culturally sensitive, long-term and child/family centered circle of care for children, adolescents and young adults with ABI. This plan was created by the Sarah Jane Brain Foundation with the participation of a panel of national experts that included families and family advocacy organizations, physicians, allied health care professionals, educators and researchers.

THE ABSTRACT CENTER IS NOW CLOSED.  NABIS received a significant increase in submissions this year -- thank you to all those who sent in their research.  The peer-review grading has begun and submitters will be notified in due course of the committee's decisions.  

All accepted abstracts from the Seventh Annual NABIS Conference on Brain Injury will be published in the Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation.

NABIS values sessions that present current and best practices, including information that compliments the Conference's topic tracks (Research/Science, Medical/Clinical and Life-Long Living) as well as innovative approaches to brain injury assessment, treatment, intervention and rehabilitation.
