looking to submit an abstract for a conference on ACEs and adult health

Debra A. Geiger 1/21/156:31 PM

I am a doctoral student in health education at Teachers College, Columbia University. I just finished collecting qualitative data for my dissertation on the influence of ACEs on self-management of type-2 diabetes in adults. I am interested in submitting an abstract (most likely a poster presentation) for an upcoming conference related to my topic. I would appreciate any suggestions or recommendations.

Thank you,

Debra Geiger RN, MS, EdD(c)

Debra,

I don't know what exactly you are needing here, but perhaps this will help. My book, When The Body Says No, is entirely about the connection between childhood adversity and chronic illness of all types. You can read the first chapter at my website, www.drgabormate.com. It contains many references. The final segment of this interview is on the same subject: http://www.democracynow.org/20...or_mat_on_the_stress Another related book is Scared Sick: The Role or Childhood Trauma in Adult Disease, by Robin Karr-Morse, again fully referenced.

All best,

Gabor Maté
