The dynamic tandem speaking team of Dr. Ronald Schefdore and Dr. Jack Maggiore is scheduled to present a scientific keynote address at the international conference, BioConference Live on November 19, 2009 at 3:00 PM CT. Their seminar, entitled New Uses for Forgotten Technologies Spells Opportunities for Innovative Thinkers: Real Stories will detail how through minor enhancements and adaptations, their scientific team looks to existing medical technologies to create the cornerstones on which consumer awareness and educational campaigns are built. Their presentation will provide an overview of several cases where obsolete, seldom-used, or forgotten technologies have been employed as key diagnostic components in major retail and pharmaceutical marketing campaigns, as well as a detailed look at how one specific medical technology is being used to drive a major paradigm shift within the clinical industry of dentistry.
Registration for this event is free, and includes access to several keynote addresses as well as hundreds of biomedical vendors through a virtual exhibition of products and services. Visit http://www.bioconferencelive.com/
