One of the most challenging areas in clinical neuropsychology is the assessment and remediation of neurocognitive impairment in preschool and school-aged children. We are fortunate at this year’s conference to offer an internationally renowned faculty of speakers who are pioneers in the development of new research methods for evaluating and helping children who present with neurocognitive syndromes. The speakers will present the latest findings from their investigations as well as those from other researchers. The emphasis will not only be on new models and techniques of clinical assessment, but also on new approaches for remediation of cognitive deficits in the developing child. The speakers will emphasize practical tools that clinicians and educators can use in their work with children. The program is intended for neuropsychologists, clinical psychologists, school psychologists, speech therapists, learning specialists, educators, psychiatrists, neurologists, and other interested health professionals. As we have done for the past 20 years, Dr. Edith Kaplan and I, the conference moderators, will encourage questions and discussions between the audience and faculty.
