November 6-9. 2025
Berkeley, CA

In the busy world of neurology, neuroimmunology, neurorheumatology and medicine, it is hard to keep up with new advances, new tests, new technology and new treatments related to the above fields. This upcoming conference has a distinguished group of world-class speakers from major universities on a host of great topics from which to learn in a cost-effective manner with the opportunity to earn up to 25.5 CME. Note that most meals are included for registered attendees.


For example, there are many questions that you might have prior to this conference:


  • How do you approach and treat a patient with suspected autoimmune encephalitis?
  • When do you consider IgG4-Related Disease and did you know that the FDA just approved a new medication for this disease? 
  • Did you know that there is now an FDA approved medication for Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders?
  • What are Stiff Person Syndrome and other GAD antibody disorders? How do you diagnose it and what is the current treatment?
  • Did you know that there are now 25 medications used to treat Multiple Sclerosis? How do you select the appropriate one to use? What are MS Mimickers? Note that not all patients with suspected with MS have MS.
  • How do you approach the pediatric population in regard to pediatric MS, autoimmune epilepsy.
  • What is new in Myasthenia Gravis and Eaton Lambert Syndrome in regard to tests, diagnosis and treatment?
  • How do you diagnosis and treat NeuroSarcoidosis and Autoimmune Neuropathies?
  • Do you know about antibodies to CD 320 and the blood brain barrier and its relationship to vitamin B12 deficiency? What does this evaluation involve and what is the treatment?
  • Do you know about the History of Multiple Sclerosis, the harbinger of NeuroImmunology? From where did these diseases originate?
  • Do you know about the History of Autoimmune Pernicious Anemia, “the Forgotten Disease” and that there were 4 different Nobel Prizes awarded to individuals regarding this historically, challenging disease. 
  • What is new in Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, CTE, NeuroSLE, NeuroSjogren’s Disease, NeuroVasculitis, NeuroPsoriasis and Spondyloarthropathies, Myositis, Paraneoplastic Autoimmune Neurological Disorders, and CNS Legislative Matters
  • How do you treat chronic pain in patients with Multiple Sclerosis?
  • What is CAR-T Therapy in Autoimmune diseases.


If the above questions whet your appetite for knowledge and better patient care, then this symposium is a must for you and your colleagues to attend. We hope to see you then. Register early and let your colleagues know about this unique and intellectually provocative conference. 


Sincerely, 


George Sarka MD, DrPH, FAAN, FACR and Robyn Young MD, FAAN, FACP; CoChairs for the CNS sponsored NeuroImmunology and Beyond!
