I gave your list to many parents of children with Autism at a social networking site for 4 Paws for Ability (and a few other sites as well), and here’s what Marcy Finn said, “Thanks! Great list! There is an Autism Symposium on March 13, 2010 in Reading Pa at Alvernia University from 8am – 3pm, featuring John Elder Robison as keynote speaker. He wrote a book about his own living experience with autism called Look Me In the Eye He is the brother of Augusten Burroughs and was not diagnosed until age 40 with Asperger’s Disorder. Fantastic book, amazing man! Wonderful conference. We went last year and learned soooo much! Hope this is helpful!”
Thanks for posting the schedules, so thoughtful of you. I would really love to attend one of those conferences if my work schedule permits.
I need help to know a conference through which I can give an oral presentation on my work on “Metabolic markers on saudi autistics”
Thanks
