Today, we give you our discussion with Drs. Kathleen Fuchs and Tony Stringer about the Minnesota Guidelines. Kathleen and Tony have served as co-chairs of the Minnesota Update Conference Steering Committee and have been intimately involved in the process that has led to the publication of the updated training guidelines for neuropsychology.
On July 1st, 2022, we released a conversation with Dr. Brad Roper on an introduction to the Minnesota Conference . That initial discussion has a lot of background about the initial conceptualization, planning, and organization of the Conference, so we suggest checking it out if you’d like more context.
