From our committee to all Oxford members, welcome to our latest report. Our evening lectures remain the mainstay for Oxford ACPIN with regular attendance over 20 and although the venue tends to be Oxford, we will hope to be sharing these more widely. We appreciate the venue is not ideal as access is becoming harder. Many of you do not live in Oxford and I hope you will bear with us and note new venues on the fliers. Please let the committee know your preference on venue location.
Giles Yeates, Principal Clincal Neuropsychologist, gave a very thorough and stimulating talk on the psychological aspects behind gait re-education. It was a very interactive discussion into a minimally researched area. Professor Wade once again provided a thought provoking talk and an evening lecture on Apraxia with a physiotherapist and OT had a bumper turnout.
The AGM once again welcomed Stana Bojanic, always a popular speaker.
We are planning two courses this year, Richard Sealy and Martine Nadler will be presenting Neuroplasticity, learning and cognition for therapist on June 18th and we have yet to confirm a weekend day course exploring the Pusher syndrome. Evening courses planned will be delivered by clinical psychologists, a speech and language therapist and Jo Camp will speak on Vibration therapy. A social will be held in July.
We hope to repeat the evening research forum , with a range of speakers and topics in bite size chunks to stimulate discussion and application to our neurological practice. Please look out for details not only here but on fliers and in Frontline or call any of the committee.
Again thank you to all our members for your support, Oxford ACPIN is for you; please feel able to suggest topics and thank you for entering into healthy debate. Sophie has left our committee but I am sure will continue to be an active local member.
