I was not aware that our ethics required that we not attend any lectures unless they were sponsored by IBCLE, WHO or one of the accredited institutes. Say it ain't so. I may just have to give up my IBCLC, stop pursuing further education because a pharmaceutical company is sponsoring research at my local university!

I was very shocked and saddened today to learn that Paula Meier is speaking at our local AWHONN meeting in April and it is sponsored by Abbott Nutritionals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was so looking forward to the event and now I cannot ethically attend.
