For the last 26 years, many of the world's leading authorities in the field of Sleep Disorders in Infancy and Childhood have met at the Annenberg Center for Health Sciences to share theories, information and knowledge. They have presented studies and held informal and formal discussions focused on expanding our knowledge of these disorders.

The Annenberg Center for Health Sciences at Eisenhower regrets to announce we will no longer be sponsoring the annual Conference on Sleep Disorders in Infancy and Childhood.

Thank you to the vendors who faithfully supported this meeting. We are very grateful to those who served on planning committees, participated as faculty, and attended this meeting over the years. The Annenberg Center has been privileged to be a part of this important forum for over a quarter century.
