"Trauma & Disaster: Complexity, Diversity & Recovery"

 

The Australian Conference On Traumatic Stress is encouraging submissions for the 2012 conference in Perth (6th to 8th September). If you would like to present a symposium, paper or poster, please complete the form below. In order to ensure plenty of opportunity for questions and discussion, paper presentations should be of 15 minutes duration. This will allow for up to 5 minutes of questions following each paper, plus a general discussion period at the end of the session. Should you be submitting a symposium, it should include 3 to 4 papers and last 90 minutes in total.

Although we are happy to consider any abstracts related to the mental health effects of trauma, we will give special consideration to presentations which are in line with the theme of the conference - "Trauma & Disaster: Complexity, Diversity & Recovery". Closing date for submissions: 31st March 2012.

Current International Keynote Speakers include Professor Doug Zatzick (Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science, University of Washington School of Medicine), Professor Pat Dudgeon (School of Indigenous Studies, University of Western Australia, Australia) & Associate Professor Michael Scheeringa (Department of Psychiatry and Neurology, Tulane University, USA). Pre-conference workshops are being scheduled on the 6th of September and the papers, symposia and posters are being scheduled for the 7th and 8th of September. Updated information is available on the ASTSS website.

Conference Registration and booking will soon be available online, as will a PDF flyer for registration.
