NMD4C Launch Educational Platform LEARNMD
NMD4C is thrilled to introduce LEARNMD, an online educational platform offering talks and sessions on a wide range of neuromuscular topics presented by leading clinical and scientific experts worldwide. This platform is designed to provide Canadian clinicians and researchers at every career stage with high-quality training and educational resources tailored to their specific neuromuscular interests.
LEARNMD offers a self-directed personalized learning experience tailored to learners’ specific interests, covering neuromuscular disorders, translational and clinical research, therapies, and management strategies. The platform hosts hundreds of educational resources, including recordings of our monthly accredited series and others from organizations we have partnered with. LEARNMD will be regularly updated with new content, ensuring access to the latest research developments and clinical updates.
If you are a Canadian clinician, researcher, and member of the NMD4C we invite you to create a LEARNMD user profile for free. Sign up for the platform here!
We are seeking to build the library of content available in LEARNMD – If you have delivered or attended any neuromuscular-related talks that you think should be included, please reach out to let us know!
