- The CCRE SPINE and CONROD has jointly hosted the second of its international summit meetings "Whiplash: How to lessen the transition to chronicity". The think tank of 21 international delegates approached the condition of Whiplash from a bio-psycho-social context and laid a road map forward for future research on how to help the more than 50% of whiplash sufferers who transition to a chronic condition. Outcomes of the meeting include a journal supplement due for publication in late 2011.
- Following on from the summit meeting, as part of the Centre's translational activities an open feedfback forum was held for those who work closely with Whiplash sufferers including clinicians and insurers. Held on February 19th & 20th, the symposium provided the audience the opportunity to hear from all 21 international delegates from a multi-disciplinary persepctive.
