Week 2, Day 4
Welcome to week 2! This week will be a little more project-focused as we begin approaching some of the deadlines we set last week.
Today we will have our second Expert Guest Speaker of the week: Dr. Elizabeth Sandel on Thursday at 10:00 am PT | 12:00 pm CT | 1:00 pm ET. Dr. Sandel is a Clinical Professor in the Department of PM&R at the University of California Davis School of Medicine. She is also the author of the book we have been reading: Shaken Brain. Here is a link to her bio.
Tomorrow we will have a Squarespace Tutorial at 10:00 am PT | 12:00 pm CT | 1:00 pm ET where we will learn how to work with the Concussion Alliance website. We’ll end the week again with a social hour at 12:00 pm PT | 2:00 pm CT | 3:00 pm ET.
The week 3 schedule is posted in the slack so please take a look at that to plan ahead.
