\nLeading experts in pediatric behavioral and developmental medicine will come together in Omaha on April 4-5 to present the first-ever Munroe-Meyer Institute Symposium, a multidisciplinary conference on the latest research, concepts and strategies in treating behavioral, genetic and developmental disabilities in children.<\/p>\n

The symposium, which will be held at the newly renovated DoubleTree Hotel and Executive Meeting Center at 1616 Dodge St. in downtown Omaha, is designed for health professionals in pediatrics, special education, occupational therapy, speech pathology, psychology and nursing.<\/p>\n

The program will cover a range of pediatric topics including the management of autism spectrum disorders, pediatric feeding disorders, ADHD, metabolic and genetic diseases, treatment of pediatric bone disease, and options to promote mobility in children with developmental disabilities.<\/p>\n

MMI is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. <\/p>\n

“MMI has a tradition of providing services and support to families of children with genetic disorders and developmental disabilities,” said Mike Leibowitz, Ph.D., interim director of MMI. “We thought the symposium would provide a perfect forum to highlight our anniversary and share some of our expertise with the community. We think it will be an outstanding opportunity for providers to learn new information to enhance the quality of life for individuals with disabilities.” <\/p>\n<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
