InboxHere's my weekly gathering of products, events, and stories of interest that have landed in my e-mail queue this week:

+ The Epilepsy Therapy Project and the Epilepsy Foundation sent a press release about grants they've made for the development of "new devices to treat, detect, and monitor epilepsy conditions." You can read it for yourself on the Epilepsy Therapy Project site.

+ Jeanette Bradley, About.com's guide to Food Allergies, forwarded some information about an "online peanut allergy summit" being hosted by Thermo Fisher Scientific about "advancements in molecular allergy testing." If you're free June 27, 1-2 p.m. EST, or June 28, 4:30-5:30 p.m. EST, you can find links for signing up on the Is It Allergy? blog.

+ Jessica Kingsley Publishers has added Understanding Cerebral Palsy: A Guide for Parents and Professionals to its JKP Essentials series. For my take on other books in the series, read my reviews of Understanding Dyspraxia and Understanding Fragile X Syndrome.

Do you have good books, apps, sites, or products to call to our attention? Write a book or app review, submit a site or blog, and post in the marketplace section of the forum.
