Sherman College of Chiropractic is now accepting abstracts for its 16th annual International Research and Philosophy Symposium (IRAPS), a peer-reviewed chiropractic conference that addresses vertebral subluxation research and the philosophy of chiropractic.
Abstracts must be submitted by May 1, 2019. IRAPS 2019 will be held October 12-13, on the Sherman College campus in Spartanburg, S.C. Continuing education credit will be available; details will be released after speakers have been selected.
Topic examples for this year’s abstracts, both for platform and poster presentations, may include:
• Case studies that focus on the location, analysis and correction of vertebral subluxation (LACVS)
• Philosophy of chiropractic as a component of LACVS type care
• Scholarly pursuits that will advance chiropractic education, practice and the profession
The goal of IRAPS 2019 is to bring leaders in philosophy and research together, along with practitioners and educators who are centered on vertebral subluxation practice, to build a stronger academic community worldwide regarding the subluxation model of chiropractic. Our intent is to foster a view that the chiropractic profession is centered on vertebral subluxation, based on vitalism, dedicated to research and developing a discipline of philosophy.
Abstract details
Abstracts are to take the form of short papers having approximately 300 words. References are expected. Each submission undergoes a peer-reviewed process. Find out more about IRAPS and view the detailed Call for Submissions, including abstract guidelines, at sherman.edu/iraps.
