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 diagnosis and management of stroke, multiple sclerosis, headache, dementia, and apply best practices for their management
