Indigenous ear health workshop - making a difference

A one day workshop addressing ear disease and its underlying issues in Indigenous children will be held at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre, Perth, WA, on Friday, 15 March, 2013.

The workshop is designed to bring together ear, nose and throat (ENT) surgeons, GPs, nurses, Indigenous health workers, audiologists, teachers and many other workers involved in managing ear health.

The workshop includes national experts in their field who will address management issues and developments in treating chronic ear disease in Indigenous children. The main topics will relate to translational and clinical research in the field - making a difference to the lives of these children.

The workshop will explore associated public health, paediatric, immunological and education issues associated with chronic ear disease.

At the conclusion of the meeting, participants should be cognisant of current applied research and treatment strategies for Indigenous people with chronic ear disease.
