American Association for Emergency Psychiatry invites you to join us virtually for our 11th Annual NUBE Conference December 3-4, 2020

We are seeking dynamic, engaging, and knowledgeable presenters for the annual National Update on Behavioral Emergencies Conference.

“What’s new in behavioral emergencies? Cutting edge treatments in mental health emergencies.”

AUDIENCE

The primary conference audience consists of psychiatrists, emergency medicine physicians, nurses, social workers, and residents. Lecture and workshop content and instruction should be geared to a level that is appropriate for the target audience.

CRITERIA

Proposals are solicited for topics in behavioral emergencies that are interactive, creative, dynamic, and feature best practices in psychiatric emergency medicine. Based on the complexity and subject matter of your topic, you will be assigned either a 15-minute or a 30-minute presentation slot (please indicate if you have a preference when applying).

The presentation timeframe should include introductions, presentation material, and a question & answer session. Attendees should leave with specific knowledge and skills about various aspects of the topic and how it relates to their future development. Presentations should provide attendees with educational value and refrain from promoting a specific business, product, or service.

The theme of this year’s conference is “What’s new in technology and behavioral emergencies?” The speaker committee specifically invites lectures on innovative topics in behavioral emergencies, although lectures on more-established topics are welcome as well, as long as they have not been presented recently.
