BACKGROUND
Today’s FASD Book Club session at 12.30pm, with Professor Raja Mukherjee, will be focussed on his chapter: ‘Diagnosing FASD in the Context of Other Overlapping Neurodevelopmental Presentations.’
National FASD is committed to bringing the latest research to wider audiences.
Professor Raja Mukherjee and Dr Neil Aiton are editors of ‘Prevention, Recognition and Management of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders’. This book is made for other doctors and researchers.
To make this available to more people, we have created Raja and Neil’s FASD Book Club – these are based on 30-minute lunchtime sessions with the editors and chapter authors. (15-minute presentations and 15 minutes for Q&A).
Through these sessions, we are making insight into leading research accessible for wider audiences.
We have Book Club sessions planned throughout the rest of 2022, and more will be scheduled into 2023. If you’d like to take part in Q&As with the authors and editors, register free now to view the upcoming live sessions:
