Brain Support Network and Stanford Movement Disorders Center co-hosted a Multiple System Atrophy Symposium on May 4, 2024.
The event featured seven main speakers — Stanford’s Dr. Mitchell Miglis and Dr. Jocelyn Jiao, Kaiser’s Dr. Elena Call and speech therapist Stevy Shadwick, UCSF’s physical therapist Dr. Erica Pitsch, and Brain Support Network’s Robin Riddle. There was a panel moderated by Brain Support Network’s Candy Welch, including two active MSA caregivers, one former MSA caregiver, a person with MSA-C, and a person with MSA-P. Plus there was a very short talk by Stanford researcher Dr. William Robinson.
The symposium was recorded. And two or three writers with Stanford Parkinson’s Community Outreach are writing up their notes from the various presentations!
