The 9th Annual Advanced Curriculum for Multiple Sclerosis, chaired by Dr. Fred D. Lublin, is an innovative medical education program that provides clinicians with recent information relative to all aspects of the multiple sclerosis disease spectrum. This comprehensive curriculum will utilize interactive and engaging formats to deliver practical information regarding the care of patients with MS that can be applied in practice. Topics for this CME/CE course include diagnosis, biomarkers, and monitoring, current and emerging MS therapeutics, shared decision making, management of the MS patient, and advances in MS centers.
Neurologists, MS specialists, fellows, residents, nurses, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals involved in the management of patients with multiple sclerosis.
In support of improving patient care, AcademicCME is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.
