FREE FOR MEMBERS!
Description: In this session we will discuss the pathophysiology of multiple sclerosis (MS)- and how this relates to current and potential biomarkers. Neuroimaging is the main biomarker used clinically, but fluid-based biomarker research (blood and CSF) has made tremendous advances. Blood based biomarkers that may be clinically and diagnostically useful are in the horizon; these will be explored critically.
Date: November 25, 2021
Time: 12pm – 1pm (ET)
Credits awarded per Session. See individual Sessions for further details.

Speaker: Carlos Camara-Lemarroy MD

Dr. Carlos Camara completed his internal medicine and neurology residencies at the UANL University Hospital in Monterrey, Mexico. He subsequently completed a two-year MS and Neuroimmunology fellowship at the University of Calgary.

His current research interests include the gut-brain axis, biomarkers and neuroprotection in MS and neuroinflammatory disorders of the CNS. The main focus of this work is translational, where basic neuroscience research is developed into clinical applications and novel therapies for MS and related disorders.
