ICN Guest Lectures

You Are Here: IC Network > "Meet the IC Expert" Lectures From Leading Medical Authorities

A cornerstone of our web site, the ICN invites nationally prominent IC medical authorities (physicians, researchers and authors) to speak in the only live IC presentation series on the internet. In 2006, we developed the 2006 IC & PBS On-Line Patient Conference, the first web based conference designed specifically for patients who were homebound and/or unable to attend regional or national meetings. The ICN is proud to offer this valuable educational opportunity for IC patients throughout the world. Please register for our free e-newsletter to receive our monthly newsletters and speaker announcements. - Jill Osborne, ICN Founder
