Didactic Webinar Series
Background
The ACTRIMS Didactic Webinar Series is offered nationally to neuroimmunology and MS fellows. An expert lecturer will present on niche topics to increase the educational yield for trainees. This series provides a forum for trainees to engage with advanced faculty on a scheduled basis.
Goals
- To use a virtual platform to provide national didactics on high-yield niche topics in neuroimmunology
- To increase comfort levels among neuro-immunology trainees on high-yield niche topics in neuroimmunology
- To provide fellows with the opportunity for direct interactions with topic experts
- To facilitate discussion and networking among MS/Neuroimmunology trainees
Learning Objectives
- Describe the tools underlying MS/Neuroimmunology evidence-based-practice, including trial design, lab-based testing and imaging
- Compare the pathogenic mechanisms underlying MS and other neuroimmunologic diseases
- Distinguish rare neuroimmune diseases and their mimics
- Describe the issues affecting special populations (pediatric and advanced MS) and explain management strategies for these groups
- Integrate cross-disciplinary tools to manage symptomatic concerns for MS and other neuroimmune diseases
CE Accreditation
The ACTRIMS Didactic Webinar Series is planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of Interstate Postgraduate Medical Association (IPMA) and ACTRIMS. The IPMA is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians. The Interstate Postgraduate Medical Association designates each live activity for a maximum 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)TM. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
All ACTRIMS didactic webinars are recorded and added to the LearnMS online library 2-3 business days post-live event. Trainee participants may watch lectures on-demand and still claim CE credit. To access recordings, you will need to be signed into your ACTRIMS account while in the LearnMS online library.
2026-2027 Series Disclosures will be available soon.
After the 2026-2027 Series concludes, it will be offered on-demand as an enduring CME activity to the broader ACTRIMS community for purchase.
