JOIN THE SRNA AT THE 2013 RARE NEURO-IMMUNOLOGIC DISORDERS SYMPOSIUM

/in /by

This symposium will be focused on current strategies and research projects addressing opportunities for recovery of function after CNS damage. The symposium will be held on Oct 25-26, 2013 at University of Texas at Southwestern campus in Dallas, TX.

From the first Transverse Myelitis International Symposium held in Seattle in 1999 to the first Rare Neuro-immunologic Disorders Symposium, which was held in Baltimore in 2004, these education programs have offered a unique clinical and research program for patients, families and the medical and research community. These events are extremely important and beneficial for the exchange of information regarding research and treatment strategies, as well as providing an opportunity to bring together the patient and medical community.

The focus of the 2013 two-day education program is on repair, recovery and restorative therapies.  We have framed the agenda around five themes: rehabilitation, drug-based functional recovery, surgical repair strategies, drug-based repair therapies and cell based repair strategies. The symposium is open to individuals diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis, Acute Disseminated Encephalitis, Neuromyelitis Optica, Optic Neuritis, Autoimmune Encephalitis and other immune disorders of the central nervous system; along with families and caregivers and the medical and research community. Participants will also have the opportunity to enroll in a longitudinal natural history study.

Make sure to browse through the agenda to learn more about all the different topics being covered.
