We appreciated the fact that two workshops proposals recommended
by the committee were accepted in the program of SLEEP 2013. Both the
workshops proposed by Dr. Sharon on the RLS/Willis Ekbom Disease
pathophysiology, diagnosis, and long term management, and the work-
shop proposed by Dr. Manconi and Dr. Picchietti on the management
of RLS during pregnancy have been highly appreciated by the audience
who participated with interest, enthusiasm and rich discussion. We are
evaluating potential proposals for APSS in Minneapolis 2014. For those
interested in submitting possib
roposals,
