Conference on Neurophysiology of Developmental Disorders in Children 2005

[Gregor Kohls <gregor.kohls@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

International Conference
"Neurophysiology of Developmental Disorders in Children"
2.-3. December 2005

As a result of the positive feedback to our conferences of
the past four years, we have decided to organize this year
the fifth conference on the Neurophysiology of
Developmental Disorders in Children.

The conference aims to create an international platform for
researchers to present and discuss their current work. As
established during the past years the main focus will be on
developmental disorders from the neurophysiological point
of view.

You are hereby cordially invited and it would be our
pleasure to welcome you in Freiburg:
