I am referring to Inaugural Conference on Disease Mongering.
‘Disease-mongering’ is the expansion of the boundaries of disorders, the medicalisation of normal life events and the portrayal of risk factors as diseases.
It is a massive problem that is driven mostly by medical and pharmaceutical marketing.
The conference website is here: http://www.diseasemongering.org
The Public Library of Science has papers and notes from the conference on-line.
