Here is a program update of presentations accepted so far for the 4th conference of the International Behavioral and Medical Biometrics Society. This program presents leaders in each of the fields. Included are three prominent teachers of hand analysists,and three of the leading lecturers at the Sixteenth International Union of Anthropologists and Ethnologists Societies World Congress at the invitation of the IUAES and the Chinese Union of Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences. where they gave lectures to the academic audience at the 7th Conference of the Chinese Dermatoglyphics Association (a section of the IUAES) at the conference on the Yunnan University Campus in Kunming, China in July, 2009. Researchers of medical and biometric corespondences found in the hands, feet, eyes, faces, lips and hair are planning to participate.

There may still be openings on the program for worthy papers in the Biometric fields that touch on either behavior or medicine. Contact the chairperson below at ed@ibmbs.com for further information.

The Following Offerings Have Been Accepted:

Looking at Faces

Naomi Tickle will make her first appearance at an IBMBS conference. She is the author of You Can Read A Face Like A Book and Closing The Sale. She began her studies and practice of face reading 22 years ago. Naomi has recently appeared on CNN, NBC, BBC, Good Morning America and numerous television radio interviews around the world. Her book is used as a tool for communications, understanding children, relationships, team building, sales, career guidance and personal development. Recent blind studies with career counselors comparing the career assessment program with more traditional tests, indicates an exact match for both careers and personality assessments. In many cases the career suggestions are more on target, this is based on the feedback from the client. These career assessments can be successfully made from photographs or in person. Naomi has given workshops and lectures to The World Trade Center, CNN, AT&T, IBM marketing division UK, National Semiconductor, College and Orthodontist conferences, Keynote speaker at Real Estate retreats and Coaching conferences plus many more.

Hand Study of Bill Clinton

Does he have a Simian Line Variant?

We are in for a rare and historical treat. Sean O’Sullivan:

Besides being an accomplished palmist, and labor lobbyist, Sean is a gifted amateur photographer. Recently he found himself at a dinner party seated near Bill Clinton, the former U.S. president. Through the evening he took numerous photographs of Mr. Clinton’s hands and will share them with us as well as his interpretations during the conference. You may be in for a few surprises. And you can share in the interpretations.

The Lips Have It

Ms. Jilly Eddy will return after her well received appearance at our Budapest conference to discuss more of her findings of lip correspondences to behavior and health. Ms. Eddy is the founder and pioneer of this study and may be joined by some of her students in presentations. Ms. Eddy has been working on coordinating a Lipsology presentation panel with Deni Luna, Pam Fox and possibly my Associate in Hawaii, Lance Fushikoshi. This presentation is going to be focused on the “Lack of Color” markings in our lip prints. These are also know as “Stress Lines or Energy Drainers,” including identification of the markers, their interpretation and to share how and why this information can be helpful.

Hand Experts

Wang Chenxia, is one of China’s leading experts and teachers of Traditional Chinese and Tibetan medicine, director of the Kunming Palm Line Medical Institute, and expert in hand and face readings. She is capable of making many diagnoses from the features of the hand, teaches this medical art, and is planning to attend and make a major contribution to the program. Dr. Wang has an enormous collection of hand photographs from her years of teaching and practice. Dr. Wang is from Beijing and she opened her clinic in Kunming, the Capital of Yunnan province because Yunnan Province has the largest number of ethinc groups of any province in China (26 of the 56 ethnic groups). This gave her the widest ethnic variety of hand types for her studies. Her Power Point presentation is entitled Live Following the Sun, and shows multiple anatomical, hand and meridian features and heath correspondences. United States Senators Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray have both provided letters of support for her attendance and we hope, with their added support, that prior visa problems barring Dr. Wang’s attendance will be overcome. Dr. Wang is the author of numerous works in Chinese that we are encouraging her to have translated for distribution in English and other languages. Her power point presentation entitled Live Following the Sun, looks quite exciting, with many anatomical and photographic illustrations of the hand, the body and the human meridian system displaying many features of hand medical diagnoses. Dr. Wang lectured at the recent conference in Kunming, China.

Dean Mary Lai, Mind Measurement Education Association, Taipei, Taiwan, will return. She now has English translations of her work and both English and Chinese software for those who seek to collaborate in her palmar and plantar dermatoglyphic educational evaluation and human resource analysis. She, along with Wang Chenxia and another noted below, recently presented their work at the Sixteenth International Union of Anthropologists and Ethnologists Societies World Congress at the invitation of the IUAES and the Chinese Union of Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences, lectured at the7th Conference of the Chinese Dermatoglyphics Association (a section of the IUAES) at Yunnan University in Kunming China. She has been working on her programs of child assessments for over a quarter of a century and collected prints of thousands of children she and her staff and students have evaluated in her research and counseling services. Web sitewww.mme.com.tw . Dean Lai has developed software to work with hardware scanning the palms and souls of the subjects for consistent and reliable evaluations.

Richard Unger: author of LifePrints, Deciphering Your Life Purpose from Your Fingerprints, © 2007 and founder and director of the International Institute of Hand Analysis in the California Bay Area, is planning a conference presentation, taking time off his busy schedule from the practice and teaching in North America and Europe. The title of his presentation will be Human Intelligence, Pattern Recognition and the Art/Science of Hand Reading. Richard will be presenting his latest work in increasing the speed of learning about the highly complex field of hand analysis. Web site http://www.handanalysis.net/.

Gabriel S. Oladipo will join us from Nigeria where he is the Ag Head Department of Anatomy, College of Health Sciences at the University of PortHarcourt-Nigeria. Oladipo Gabriel Sunday, will present an original paper on Palmar Dermatoglyphics in Essential Hypertension Amongst Rivers Indigenes, regarding the findings of a research project conducted by him with the assistance of Bob-Manuel, Ibinabo and Osogba, Iruoghene G. also with the Department of Anatomy.

Dr (Mrs) Alaba Udoaka, FWACS, a Consultant Radiologist and a Lecturer in Anatomy , University of Port Harcourt in Nigeria. has been invited to present a paper entitled Digital Dermatoglyphics in Ijaw Students of University of Port Harcourt, Nigeria .

Hair Patern Analysis For Forensic Science

Dr. (Mrs.) Roseline Ekeatte Ucheya, Ph.D., Dept. Of Anatomy, Faculty of Basic Medical Science, School of Medicine, University of Benin, in Benin City, Nigeria Hopes to join us with a recent forensic science study. She will poresent a study on the types and incidence of hair whorl pattern on the posterior aspect of the scalp amongst Nigerians was studied using a population sample with ages ranging between 15 and 40 years. The study was aimed at determining the centre of hair wall pattern on the scalp, variation in sites of the whorl patterns, frequency of each site, difference in the direction of rotation of the hair whorl on the occiput, and the mean angle and standard deviation of the centre of the whorl pattern. Five hundred subjects within and around Enugu metropolis, chosen randomly were studied. She and her colleagues suggest that hair whorl patterns can be of good use to the forensic experts if the scalp is photographed from the rare view.
