Hi,

Thanks to the mods for letting me put this up.

The Ehlers Danlos Sydrome Awareness Ireland group have organized a conference all about EDS/Hypermobility and how's it's diagnosed, how to treat it, the various different types of it, how to manage pain in EDS patients and so on. EDS is a genetic disorder of collagen production that can cause wide-ranging effects from joint-hypermobility to fragile skin that can't be stitched, to gasteroparesis, easy bruising, delayed healing and frequent dislocations, among others.

Among the speakers will be one of the world leaders in Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, Prof. Rodney Graham from University College London. there will be interactive Q&A sessions. It's being held in the Silver Springs Moran Hotel in Cork on the 7th of March and will run from 9am to 5pm. We hope that the event will be of interest to professionals such as GPs and Physiotherapists who may have EDS patients in their care. It might also be of interest to medical students who can come and learn from the experts about a disorder that can take so many different forms and have such wide ranging effects.

The ticket costs are being kept as low as possible and will include a light lunch and tea/coffee. Adult tickets are €20 and student tickets are €15. Special room rates in the hotel are available for those attending the conference.
