Variants of GBS|CIDP

Wednesday, January 17, 2024 11:00to12:00
Online
Price: 
Free

"Join our webinar conversation with Dr. Karissa Gable, Associate Professor of Neurology at Duke University, about the less common neuromuscular conditions present within the GBS|CIDP Foundation International's patient community; sometimes called the "Variants Community" as many are variations of typical GBS or CIDP.

What Will the Webinar Cover?

We will specifically talk about Anti-Mag Peripheral Neuropathy, Miller Fisher Syndrome, Acute Motor Sensory Axonal Neuropathy, Lewis-Sumner Syndrome, anti-neurofascin 155 genes, and more. We will discuss the typical presentation for these conditions, how they are treated, and how to advance research for ultra-rare diseases like these.

Who Should Attend?

Patients with a variant of GBS or CIDP or a less common neuromuscular condition will certainly benefit from learning more about the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment process for these conditions. Loved ones may also find the information useful."
