Precision Neuromuscular Therapy
PNMT Colloquium 2011 June 17-19, 2011
In 2007 and 2009, we conducted Research Symposiums to present various research studies we were doing. Unfortunately, that left little time to expand on other areas we felt compelled to explore. As a result, a new format will be unveiled in 2011! The PNMT Colloquium 2011 will showcase and explore areas of interest and development to all interested in PNMT. Yes, we will still present our research, but in the context of the subjects we are exploring. The word Colloquium means a gathering with multiple speakers over a wide range of topics.

The Colloquium was a fabulous event.
