The full DAME Trial findings
Due to technical editing issues and lack of time to re-record Carmen Parata’s presentation, the difficult decision to withdraw this presentation from this conference has regretfully been made. NZLCA apologises for the loss of 1.0 L-CERP in the DSO category of Psychology, Sociology & Anthropology, which is beyond our control. The total CERPs are now 20.75.
