Greetings from Canada!

Next weekend, we're having our first international psychobiology and psych-immunology research symposium April 4-6, 2020.

It's free, and open to the public via Zoom. To watch the presentations, ask questions, and in some cases participate, pre-register at this Zoom web address.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Our 1st international symposium
By Dr. Grant McFetridge

Next week we're having our first international research symposium in the areas of psychobiology and psych-immunology. We had originally planned to have it as a small gathering at my home in Canada, with anyone who was interested watching via Zoom. With the advent of the coronavirus, we're now doing everything online.

When is the symposium?
The dates are April 4 (Saturday) to April 6 (Monday), from 8am - 1pm Pacific time zone (17:00 - 22:00 CEST).

How do I register for the symposium?
Click on this link to go to a Zoom webpage and sign up. There are 100 slots available, so it is on a 'first come, first served' basis.

What is this symposium about?
The fields of psychobiology and psycho-immunology have made fundamental breakthroughs in the last few years, taking research out of the lab and into practice with clients. The speakers at this symposium will be talking about various theoretical breakthroughs and practical applications in a number of areas.

Do I have to be an expert to understand these talks?
No. Obviously there will be presentations that require a medical or biologist's background, but others will be easily understood by a layperson. Like any meeting, it is up to you to pick and choose what sounds interesting - have fun with them!

How can I present my own work at the symposium?
One of the main reasons we are holding this symposium was to find other researchers in the field of psychobiology and psycho-immunology. If you have a passion for this area and would like to share it with your peers, please write me at Grant@PeakStates.com

How can I get more information?
We have a PDF and a webpage describing this upcoming symposium next weekend. Click here to go to the Institute webpage for more information.

Our symposium's schedule of talks
By Shayne McKenzie, CEO

It has been fascinating putting together the talks for this symposium!

We start with an overview of our breakthroughs in this area in a one hour lecture at the start of the symposium on Saturday. After that, you will need to continuously go online to view the list of talks, as we will be adjusting it on the fly during the conference.
