This series has already started, but I wanted to make you aware of the opportunity. The National Institute for the Clinical Application of Behavioral Medicine (NICABM) has a weekly teleseminar series.

I try to tune in to these when I can. It’s free to listen to the interviews at their time of broadcast every Wednesday at 5pm EDT (this one runs Aug 3rd – Sept 7th) if you sign up on through this NICABM page. Go to this page to see the speaker list, or if you want a subscription that allows you to listen to archived sessions or read transcripts. I like these offerings because as someone interested in integrated health care, I get a no-risk introduction to some interesting ideas and experts, and their books, for further investigation. This week’s speaker sounds like a good one!
