Ten Members of the Consortium will be among the speakers at April's 46th American Association of Suicidology Annual Conference in Austin, Texas.
MSRC will also be holding a pre-conference training day before the conference.
Although no speaker will be covering Military Suicide directly this year, the number of members speaking speaks to the expertise of the consortium's make up. Leaders in the field and within their specialties, the ten members will cover a variety of aspects of suicidology.
MSRC Leader, Col. Carl Castro will also be recognized with the AAS Past Presidents Special Citation for Extraordinary Contribution to Suicide Research on the last day of the conference.
