TVFVoice 2017 - 46th Annual Symposium: Care of the Professional Voice

The Voice Foundation annual symposium is a five-day interdisciplinary meeting featuring advanced programming presented by leading professionals in the voice care field. Papers, Posters, Workshops and Panels are presented to educate the scientific and artistic communities about advances being made in voice science, care and training. Voice professionals, including surgeons, scientists, speech-language pathologists, voice teachers, performing artists and students from all over the world come to gather the most up-to-date research findings, therapeutic techniques, and improved surgical methods in the field of voice medicine. They network with colleagues, see product demonstrations, learn cutting-edge techniques and earn continuing education credits.
It is a CME and CEU -accredited Voice Symposium from May 31 through June 4, 2017.
PAPERS AND POSTERS
Deadline: October 31, 2016
Abstracts must represent original work that has not been published elsewhere. Completed manuscripts must be submitted by the day of presentation at the Symposium and must be submitted for consideration for publication in Journal of Voice, unless prior arrangements have been made (Poster submissions are the exception). There will also be a New Investigators Research Forum for research-in-progress.
WORKSHOP PROPOSALS
Deadline: October 15, 2016
Voice professionals are invited to submit a proposal for a workshop to be considered for presentation at The Voice Foundation’s 2016 Symposium. The focus of the workshop should be on the “live” demonstration of your techniques with singers, actors, patients, or audience members. The workshop duration is 55 minutes, and we request that you plan for the majority of the session to be spent in hands-on interaction with the participants. Workshops should be designed to be presented without the use of audiovisual aids such as overhead projectors, slide projectors, or videotapes.
