The current webinar was initiated by Dawn Faizey Webster (LIS patient in the UK and well known after her TEDx Talk on LIS), Tracey Gibb (LIS patient in Australia, disability activist) and Shannan Keen (Founder Australian Register for Disorders of Consciousness). The three of them searched and found several people in the field of LIS throughout the world and asked them to give a presentation at the webinar.
Mariska Vansteensel (Assistant Professor at the University Medical Center of Utrecht) and Femke Nijboer (Assistant Professor at the University of Twente) later joined in to help organize a conference in the form of an online webinar.
