SLEEP 2012 – APSS Annual Meeting, Boston

Meet the Professor Information

In order to attend meet the professor sessions, you must be registered for the SLEEP 2013 general session. The APSS does not offer registration to attend only meet the professor sessions. These sessions have limited seating and are sold on a first-come, first-served basis. Advanced purchase of tickets is strongly encouraged. If mailing or faxing a registration form, please indicate your 1st – 3rd choices.  If your 1st choice is full, we will register you for your 2nd or 3rd choices, if available. If none of your preferred meet the professor sessions are available, you will not be charged or you will receive a refund.  Those attendees registered for SLEEP 2013 at the reduced training rate (i.e. Resident/Postdoctoral or Student/Predoctoral), may register for the meet the professor sessions at the member rate regardless of membership status. 

Take part in these small-group sessions during which an expert in the field of sleep medicine or sleep research leads an informal discussion on a single topic. Lunch is provided at these sessions.  Meals are pre-selected with standard dietary needs in mind and cannot be substituted to accommodate special needs.

CE credits for psychologists are not provided for Meet the Professor sessions.

Member fee: $45, Nonmember fee: $55
