authorities on these topics will be present at the program, and will cover

a variety of important subjects such as: an overview of federal Vaccine

Court and the VICP; the procedures, law and science of a vaccine injury; what

is a vaccine injury; and how adverse vaccine reactions are reported. Other

speakers will cover who can practice in Vaccine Court; ways to increase

chances of success in these claims; and relevant legislation, laws, and
