The Transverse Myelitis Association, University of Texas at Southwestern & Children’s Medical Center in Dallas, TX and The Johns Hopkins Project RESTORE in Baltimore, MD are hosting this event on Oct 25-26, 2013 at University of Texas at Southwestern campus in Dallas, TX.
From the first Transverse Myelitis International Symposium held in Seattle in 1999 to the first Rare Neuro-immunologic Disorders Symposium, which was held in Baltimore in 2004, these education programs have offered a unique clinical and research program for patients, families and the medical and research community. These events are extremely important and beneficial for the exchange of information regarding research and treatment strategies, as well as providing an opportunity to bring together the patient and medical community.
The focus of the 2013 two-day education program is on repair, recovery and restorative therapies. The agenda is framed around five themes: rehabilitation, drug-based functional recovery,
surgical repair strategies, drug-based repair therapies and cell based repair strategies. The symposium is open to individuals diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis, Acute Disseminated Encephalitis, Neuromyelitis Optica, Optic Neuritis, Autoimmune Encephalitis and other immune disorders of the central nervous system; along with families and caregivers and the medical and research community.
