Releasing Energy for Life & for Learning
Saturday 4th –
Sunday 5th April 2009
The 20th
European Conference of Neuro-Developmental Delay in Children with
Specific Learning Difficulties
Speakers from diverse disciplines have
been invited to share their own concept of the aetiology of SpLD,
and the different methods they employ to correct or remediate these
difficulties. The speakers will include: |
|
Dr. Harry Schneider, MD The Discovery of Language-Specific Areas in the Brain of Non-Verbal Children with Autism and Practical Applications to Treatment: An Emerging Theory. Using functional MRI (fMRI) and Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) at the Functional MRI Research Centre of Columbia University, Dr. Schneider and associates have found that the areas in the brain that process language in studied non-verbal children with autism are not the same as children without autism. He will also discuss the use of transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) as a possible method of stimulating and renewing use of traditional language centres of the brain. |
|
Dr. Richard T. Halvorsen, MB BS Can Children’s Vaccines Cause Neuro Developmental Delay? As a General Medical Practitioner in London, Founder of ‘Baby Jabs’, and the author of the ground-breaking book The Truth About Vaccines: How We Are Used as Guinea Pigs Without Knowing It, he will discuss if childhood vaccinations can and does cause Neuro-Developmental Delay. |
|
Dr. Luis Gomez The Diagnosis of True Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) by Nanoparticle Analysis. Using Nanoparticle Analysis (NPA) it can diagnose three important factors: metabolic disorders, gastrointestinal problems and disorder of the immune system. As a result, it is possible to ascertain which factor(s) are causing the presenting behavioural problem. |
|
Dr. Nancy L. Musarra, PhD Information Processing Skills Related to Working Memory in Individuals with Asperger’s Disorder. Children who meet the diagnostic criteria for Asperger’s Disorder (AD) are characterised by an information-processing deficit (IP) related to how they process the complex information inherent in non-verbal and verbal social tasks. The study she has done investigated the information processing deficit specific to the working memory of boys who meet the diagnostic criteria for Asperger’s Disorder compared with typically developing same age peers. |
|
Dr. Lawrence J. Beuret, MD Not Working Up To Potential : NDD Manifestations in Adolescent and Adult Populations. This paper will explore why Neuro-Developmental Delay in adolescents and adults is much less apparent and specific, when compared to the readily identifiable learning difficulties in childhood. Dr. Beuret graduated from Loyola Stritch School of Medicine in Chicago, Illinois. |
|
Pat Charlton and Alison Hore Use of the INPP Programme for Schools in the early years – a pilot project in North Tyneside. Observations of children’s physical readiness for learning and progress in physical skills based on the INPP Test Battery and Developmental Exercise Programme in Schools. |
|
Dr. Ursula Anderson, MD Using Energy, Light and Colour in the Management of Learning & Behavioural Disorders and as a means to reduce Violence. The human trinity of Body, Mind and Soul is an interweaving system of locks and keys, checks and balances that operate with exquisite precision. But what drives and sustains it all is ENERGY, and its infinity of frequencies. |
|
Dr Curtis Cripe, PhD Changes in EEG analysis during cognitive activities involving dynamic movement following use of The INPP Programme. Further details to follow. |

The Conference was
established by The Institute for Neuro-Physiological Psychology
(INPP).
INPP was
established in 1975 by Peter Blythe PhD as a research and clinical
organisation to research in to the role of Central Nervous System
Dysfunction in Specific Learning Difficulties and Anxiety Disorders,
and to develop effective methods of intervention. Methods developed at INPP are now used in over 16 countries throughout the world and have successfully treated thousands of adults and children --- |
