The Massey Regional TBI Conference is extending its deadline for investigators to submit abstracts for posters and presentations. Submissions for the conference, which will explore the diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of traumatic brain injury through lectures, a poster session and scientific presentations from funded Massey TBI Grand Challenge teams, are now due Thursday, Sept. 29.
The conference is scheduled for Oct. 24 from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Palmer Commons.
