The Sleep Education Consortium (SEC) has extended early bird registration for its 23rd Annual Sleep Conference, "From the Womb to the Tomb," which will take place in 2027. This event, aimed at medical and dental professionals, promises to be a comprehensive gathering, covering a wide range of sleep disorders and treatment options.
This year, the conference will bring together clinicians, educators, researchers, and industry leaders for two days of medical training and one day of specialized dental education. The extended early bird registration period provides healthcare professionals with an additional opportunity to secure reduced registration fees before the conference.
Dr. Jerald H. Simmons, a pioneer in sleep medicine and founder of the SEC, emphasized the importance of the event in transforming the practices of healthcare professionals. "For 23 years, this conference has been a cornerstone in the education of sleep medicine. We are excited to offer this extended early bird registration to make it easier for more medical and dental professionals to attend," he stated.
The conference will delve into various topics, including the full spectrum of treatments for sleep apnea, such as surgically implanted hypoglossal nerve stimulators and new medications expected to become available soon. It will also cover non-pharmacologic approaches to treating insomnia and restless legs syndrome. Additionally, the program will explore the relationship between pediatric sleep disorders and ADHD, as well as the impact of dental interventions on sleep-related breathing disturbances.
A unique aspect of the conference is its dual-track format, allowing medical and dental professionals to attend sessions tailored to their specific fields. The medical track will run over two days, while the dental track will offer a one-day, hands-on educational experience before joining the full conference for the final two days. This structure ensures that all participants have access to a broad range of lectures and practical sessions.
"The SEC Sleep Conference is one of the most valuable multidisciplinary sleep and airway educational events in the country," Dr. Simmons noted. "We are committed to advancing sleep medicine education and supporting professionals who diagnose, treat, and manage sleep disorders. This conference is a key part of that mission."
Attendees can register for the medical track at www.MedicalSleepConference.com and for the dental track at www.DentalSleepConference.com. Early bird pricing is available until the end of the registration period, and group discounts are available upon request.
By providing a platform for clinicians, educators, researchers, and industry leaders, the SEC Sleep Conference aims to enhance collaboration between disciplines and improve patient care through the latest advancements in sleep medicine.
