ExtraDAN: What's In and What's Out

[Guest guest]

I am posting a series of posts on the enzymeandautism board that

describe some of the things I experienced at the DAN Conference.

There is some good discussion over there if you are interested.

Anyone else who attended can add their veiw as well. I will be

posting notes from all of the presentations and most of the vendors

(I didn't quite get to visit them all). This has been approved by

this listowner. This will take a little time, but I will try to get

notes up as soon as possible. On Friday, there was a parents section

which I attended, and two practitioner's sections. So someone else

may very well have heard information I did not.

All the posts will have ExtraDAN: in the subject line. You can save

them for later, skip if not interested, or read by topic. If you

already saw these, nevermind. Overall the conference was very

good, ran very smoothly, and I would recommend going if you have

never been. Meeting all the parents was terrific. .
