2. Guidelines for Submissions
Expressions of interest are invited from those who wish to present a paper or a workshop during the 6 th AHMC which will be held in Sydney from 13-14 September 2008. All presentations will need to conform to the conference theme: 'homoeopathy: evidence & efficacy'.
This conference aims to highlight the evidence base for our medicines and methods of prescribing. Providing a forum for practitioners to show scientific and clinical evidence will enhance the credibility of our modality and provide valuable data for the homoeopathic community at large.
Possible presentations may include the following:
- Research
- Trials
- Clinical auditing
- Proven treatment protocols
- New provings with confirming cases
- Materia medica and rubric additions
- Marketing to an evidence-based society
- What may constitute evidence-based homoeopathy
- What standards need to be applied to research
- Tools and tests that may be used to improve case-taking and prescriptions
- Methods and systems of prescribing
- Findings and successes in treatment of ‘modern’ illnesses and epidemics
- Case reports in the treatment of ‘hopeless’ medical cases
- Working with other modalities in the treatment plan
- Palliative care
- Dentistry
- Veterinary
- Pharmacy
- The effectiveness of homoeopathic software
In keeping with the theme, all speakers submitting material will need to ensure that their work is well-substantiated and referenced. Papers and workshop presentations will be of 40 minutes duration and will be published in the conference proceedings. A peer review panel will choose the most appropriate submissions for the inclusion in the Conference. All session rooms will be equipped with lectern, microphone, computer and data projection equipment.
