An important part of our mission at Better Bones is to share the new insights and perspectives we gain from our clinical and secondary research with health professionals and the interested public. To this end, our director at The Better Bones Foundation, Dr. Susan E. Brown, PhD offers a range of educational services for health professionals and other interested parties. These take the form of informative, motivational presentations for the public; science-based, substance-laden presentations for the continuing education of health professionals; and continuing medical education (CME) modules for ongoing accreditation of health professionals.
