For the full programme, please see the website.
James McKenna - Normal
sleep - mother and baby together for better.
Reducing the risk
of SIDS.
James received his undergraduate degree in Anthropology in
1970, his Masters
Degree in 1972, and his PhD in Biological Anthropology in
1975. Since 1997
he has chaired the Anthropology Department at the Notre
Dame University, and
directs the Mother-Baby Behavioural Sleep Laboratory
on campus.
His research and publications concern the relationship
between infant and
childhood sleeping arrangements, breastfeeding, and the
Sudden Infant Death
Syndrome (SIDS). Indeed, he is best known
internationally for his pioneering
studies of the physiology and behaviour
of mother-infant co-sleeping.
He has published over 130 refereed
articles in anthropological, medical and
psychology journals and his list
of publications includes two book length
monographs on SIDS and Infant
Sleep, and an edited book entitled
Evolutionary Medicine (published by
Oxford in 1999).
He is currently writing a parenting book for the wider
market with a
tentative title of: Why parents, infants and children have
sleep problems to
solve.
Brian Palmer- The importance of
breastfeeding to orofacial development.
Health consequences related to
bottle and dummy use.
Brian graduated from dental school in 1970. After
a one-year hospital
residency, he set up a full-time family dental practice
in Kansas City.
Since about 1975 he has been doing self-funded research
trying to determine
the reasons for the collapse of the oral cavity and
airway.
As a former physical education major and professional football
player, he
has always been interested in health and fitness. He developed
dissecting
skills as a human anatomy lab assistant in the mid-60s and has
taken very
interesting and unique illustrations of both foetus and adult
airway
dissections.
He has evaluated 600 prehistoric skulls,
including many at the Smithsonian.
He has done extensive research on the
importance of breastfeeding as it
relates to total health and has given
presentations on breastfeeding issues
for the International Lactation
Consultant Association and La Leche League
International.
In June of
2004, he presented at the International Conference for the
Academy of
Dental Sleep Medicine (ADSM), an international group of
health-care
providers interested in the research and treatment of snoring,
obstructive
sleep apnoea (OSA) and sleep disordered breathing (SDB) -
major
contributing factors to many of the health problems in our society
today.
His current objective is to encourage funded researchers to set
up
scientifically based research to demonstrate how breastfeeding can
reduce
the risk of snoring and OSA / SDB.
Christa Herzog -
Born with a cleft - giving baby the best start to feeding.
Christa
Herzog lives in Lucerne, Switzerland. She is a paediatric nurse,
lactation
consultant, educator and mother of four children. She works at a
children's
and maternity clinic, is member of a cleft team, teaches at the
European
Lactation Institute and teaches at several midwifery and nursing
schools.
She gives talks both at home and abroad on breastfeeding children
with
cleft lip and palates. In 1996 Medela published her brochure:" Give us
a
little time" which is translated in 7 languages. Her attendance in
Hobart
is sponsored by Medela.
