This meeting is designed for the practicing neurologist and provides a review of clinical neurology with emphasis on areas of recent advances and progress in patient management. Both current concepts and new advances in neurologic disorders will be covered. This course will be offered as a live interactive virtual conference.

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES

Based on discussions with UCSF faculty and practicing physicians at other institutions, the topics were chosen based on physician-identified need for practice-based knowledge. The purpose of this program is to increase attendee competence and improve clinical practice in neurology, specifically to:

• Apply new concepts to epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, aging and movement disorders in practice;
• Recognize and select headache, and dementia of stroke, and multiple sclerosis, headache, dementia, and apply best practices for their management.

ACCREDITATION

UCSF designates this live activity for a maximum of 16.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits^TM. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
