The 2^nd official Society for Interdisciplinary Placebo Studies (SIPS) conference on placebo studies will be hosted by the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences of Leiden University from July 7 to 9, 2019 in the beautiful historical city center of Leiden, the Netherlands. Leiden is located just half an hour outside Amsterdam and 15 minutes from Schiphol airport.

The SIPS conference is devoted to medical, psychological, and neurobiological research on placebo effects, and will also address ethical dilemmas and treatment options. The conference will offer researchers and clinicians interested in placebo effects the opportunity to meet each other, learn about the latest research findings, and present their work. Both junior and senior researchers are given the chance to present their work either orally or as a poster.

Dear BiM Community We have come to the difficult decision to stop comments as this feature is no longer serving its intended function for the wider readership of BiM. Our aim is to facilitate and disseminate good clinical science research, the comments section were for folks to engage with this research constructively and not promote individual views or therapies. We feel this function is now not being fulfilled.
