I received an email from my mother-in-law about a web cast coming up on Monday, 8/13. I'll post the email below for any who may be interested.



Please join the Rehabilitation Research and Training Center on Spinal Cord Injury (RRTC on SCI) for a Web cast on Pain and Spinal Cord Injury. The RRTC on SCI is a program of the National Rehabilitation Hospital in collaboration with ILRU.

Dr. Martin Grabois with Baylor College of Medicine will present the web cast "Pain and Spinal Cord Injury" on Monday, August 13, 2007 at 2:00pm Central; 3:00pm Eastern; 1:00pm Mountain; 12:00pm Pacific.

Dr. Martin Grabois is Professor and Chair of the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabiliation at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. His sub-specialty is Pain Management with Clinical Interests in General Rehabilitation; Acute and Chronic Pain Syndrome.

As part of the continued focus on knowledge and prevention of seconday conditions associated with SCI, Dr. Grabois will give an overview of pain prevalence and prevention in people with SCI. The webcast will be moderated by ILRU Director and Professor of Baylor College of Medicine, Lex Frieden.

Join us to learn more about the types of pain associated with SCI, the role of exercise in pain prevention, and other valuable means of reducing or eliminating pain.
