Title: Vegas conference update
Post by dougW on Sep 4th, 2012 at 3:51pm
Greetings all.

Several updates for the conference in Vegas on September 21 & 22. 
The hotel is still offering rooms at $85, don't know how much longer that will last though.
We have arranged for oxygen, I'll be posting details on that later in another thread.

We've added 2 new speakers and presentation:

--Jason Magistro will be presenting the early results from the "Quality of Experience" survey via video.  This will be very interesting.

--Potter will be speaking, we're calling this "Potter's Recollections".  This promises to be informative and humorous.

The balance of the lineup is this:
  • Mr. Bob Wold, President of ClusterBusters

  • Dr. Brian McGeeney, Neurologist and Pain Medicine specialist.  Assistant Professor of Neurology at Boston University School of Medicine.

  • Mr. Carter Lee, Author, Writer,  Radio Host, Motivation Speaker and Clusterhead

  • Ms. Teri Robert, Headache Advocate, Member of AHDA & ACHE

  • Mr. Andrew Cleminshaw,  "Looking Past the Pain of Cluster Headache"

  • Dr. John Halpern, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, Co-founder of Entheogen Corp

  • Ms. K. Robbins, SSI/SSDI Specialist, Cluster Headache Patient Advocate

  • Ms. M. Weil, Update on the Clusterbuster Medication Research Survey
  • Panel Discussion, Clusterbusters at the "Headache on the HIll"

    Breakout Group Sessions:

  • Presentations on SSDI, SSI and Issues Related to Cluster Headache

  • Oxygen Demonstration and Discussion

  • And a very special presentation by Dan Ervin - Clusterhead and Star of a National Geographic Television Show.

The agenda and syllabus will be available shortly.

Conference info and IMPORTANT oxygen information is posted on the Clusterbuster message board at this link (attached at bottom of the page):

Sorry, I can't attach it as a word doc here, and a black and white scan image is too large.  :-(

Please, if you need oxygen at the conference read this carefully.  You will need your own mask and E-tank regulator.  Discussion thread in the same link, if you don't have a E-regulator, talk about it there and see who can help.

The Rio hotel has changed the meeting room in order to accommodate the number of attendees.  All functions will now be held in the Amazon Rooms (C, D, E & F)

On another note, if you are shipping items for the raffle & auction, please do so now in order to assure they arrive by Wednesday.

Thanks
