NMD4C Launches Clinical Summer School
We are excited to announce our inaugural Clinical Summer School, happening in Ottawa, Ontario on September 10–11, 2025.
The event will feature hands-on workshops designed to complement the NMD4C Royal College–accredited National Neuromuscular Lecture Series and foster engagement among fellows.
Supporting clinical trainees is a core priority for NMD4C. The Clinical Summer School will provide a unique environment for participants to refine diagnostic and analytical skills under the guidance of leading Canadian neuromuscular experts, while encouraging professional networking and mentorship. These fellows are also part of NMD4C’s 4th annual National Neuromuscular Lecture Series and represent the next generation of leaders in neuromuscular care.
To make it easier for trainees to attend, there will be no registration fees, with financial support available for both travel and accommodation.
