NMD4C Launch New Multi-Disciplinary Care of Neuromuscular Diseases Education Curriculum
The NMD4C is excited to share a new training and education initiative from our education team! The Multi-Disciplinary Care of Neuromuscular Diseases lecture series is a new CPD-Accredited 24-topic webinar series designed as an advanced curriculum for neurologists, physiatrists and neuromuscular fellows to learn fundamentals of multi-disciplinary care for patients across a range of neuromuscular conditions.
Designed by physiatrist Dr. Jessica Thériault, the curriculum covers a broad range of competencies including systemic complications in NMDs to rehabilitation and psychosocial support.
By attending weekly sessions, clinicians can learn or refresh their knowledge to work more effectively with their centre’s multi-disciplinary care teams and inform their own practice in the case of neuromuscular specialists who are relied on to provide expansive multi-disciplinary care for their patients.
Access the Curriculum:
Live lectures will take place from 6-7 pm ET running from Wednesday January 15, 2025 to June 25, 2025. Neurologists, Physiatrists and neuromuscular fellows interested in attending the series are welcome to register here to receive a calendar invitation. Lecture recordings will also be uploaded to LEARNMD and available to NMD4C clinical and research members.
