ILADS Conference streaming live

[Lesley]

The ILADS annual conference is streaming live today, tomorrow and Sunday. Dr. Garth Nicholson is currently discussing treating mitochondrial dysfunction. You can find the live stream and the program for the rest of the weekend here: http://www.ilads.org/lyme_programs/lyme_events.html

ILADS is the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society.

Thanks for posting this.

I read on one of the Lyme sites that only Friday was going to be webcast so this is good news indeed. Looking forward to tomorrow's sessions.

Here's another session that looks really informative for us:


2:15pm-3:00pm Norton Fishman, MD:
Plenary Session: The Role of Cytokines in the Jarrish-Herxheimer Response

Oops! Looks like today is the only day that will be live streamed. The homepage says all three days, but the live stream page says only today.

Good stuff

I was able to watch a few, interesting. I really wished I saw the mitochondrial segment.

Wonder how much the CD or DVD would be.

Thanks for your post, I would have never known.

Here is Better Health Guy's report on the ILADS conference.

Brewer made the alarming statement that treatment that produces a Lyme 'herx' can make XMRV more active!

Not sure what the evidence for this is, presumably the hypothesis is that the production of cytokines activitates XMRV.
