NMD4C Wraps up Second Year of Training Series for Canadian Neuromuscular Clinical Fellows
We’re excited to share that the second annual National Neuromuscular Lecture Series (NNLS) finished last week! The NNLS is our 38-week virtual curriculum for neuromuscular fellows, developed by the Pillar 3 curriculum and education team together with the directors of fellowship programs across Canada. In total, 32 fellows participated in this year’s lecture series, including adult and pediatric neuromuscular and physiatry fellows from programs across Canada.
Thank-you to this year’s NNLS lead Dr. Alberto Aleman, and all the moderators who helped conduct these lectures: Drs. Hernan Gonorazky, Jessica Thériault, Erin O’Ferrall, Marianne Nury, Alasdair Rathbone, Amanda Yaworski, and Mona Hnaini. We would also like to extend a thank-you to and share our appreciation of the speakers who presented during the program, and all the fellows who participated. We look forward to hosting the third annual curriculum beginning this August!
