IRBD 2012

IRBD is the world's largest Bipolar Disorders Conference. In 2011 over 60 leading experts and 1500 delegates attended with 40 countries represented making IRBD a truly international community. Add to that 6 sponsors, 1 webcast, 2 selective workshops and several advisory board and meet the expert meetings and the breadth and appeal of the IRBD conference becomes clear.

The organisers of the conference would like to extend their thanks to all involved in IRBD 2011 in making this conference such a huge success. 

Abstracts have been published in the International Journal of Psychopharmacology.

The 2012 International Review of Bipolar Disorders will take place at the Nice-Acropolis Convention Center, in Nice, France between the 21st and 23rd May 2012.

The language of the conference is English, and simultaneous translation into French will be available. 

If you would like to help shape the future of IRBD join the International Scientific Advisory Committee. The committee already comprises nearly 40 highly respected professionals from across the world. However, we are always looking to extend that group.

The programme will continue to be multi-tracked enabling it to offer a depth and range of information unparalleled in bipolar conferences. Expert review sessions will be delivered by the world’s experts on new developments in bipolar disorder’s epidemiology, diagnosis, pathology and treatment. New tracks for 2012 include Ground Breaking Research and Discussion and Debate ensuring that there is extensive material for discussion amongst all attendees.

We welcome the chance to form partnerships with other associations in this area to extend understanding and dialogue worldwide. With that in mind we invite regional societies and organisations to take advantage of our Associated Society Scheme. Associated societies are entitled to an extensive list of FREE benefits ranging from free promotion to the IRBD audience and room availability to discounted delegate places. The Associated Society Scheme outlines the benefits in detail.
