DESCRIPTION:Dr. Nicolas Dupré of Laval University\, Dr. Karine Garneau of U
 niversité de Montréal\, and the members of the organizing committee are pl
 eased to announce the 8th National Neuromuscular Review Course. This in de
 pth learning opportunity is available solely as an in person event. It wil
 l be held at The Neuro\, Montreal. \n\n\nRegister Here. \n\nRegistration i
 s free for residents\, $350 CAD for fellows\, and $500 CAD for neurologist
 s\, specialists\, and professionals.\n\n\nWho should attend\n\nThe review 
 course is aimed at residents and fellows from Canada and the US\, as well 
 as practicing community neurologists interested in a comprehensive review 
 of the current principles and practices dealing with neuromuscular disease
 s. \n\nBenefits of attending\n\nThis comprehensive review course may serve
  to fulfill part of the preparation requirements for trainees seeking to c
 omplete the Royal College Examinations in neurology and in related fields.
  We believe this program will assist all neurology residents in preparing 
 for their examination. The course will bring community neurologists up to 
 date on neuromuscular diseases so that ultimately\, they can improve the d
 iagnosis and care of their patients.\n\nCourse topics\n\nThe course will p
 resent experts who will provide a state-of-the-art overview of topics such
  as motor neuron diseases\, pediatrics\, neuropathies\, neuromuscular junc
 tion diseases and myopathies. The speakers will cover basic clinical conce
 pts from diagnosis to therapeutics\, from genomics to immunology. The prog
 ram will include examination scenarios for those participants wishing to g
 ain experience in examination situations.\n\nOverall Program Learning Obje
 ctives\n\n\n	By the end of the review course\, participants will be able to
  analyze the clinical presentation of prevalent neurological disorders.\n	E
 laborate an investigation plan when suspecting a neuromuscular disorder.\n
 	After completing the review course\, participants will be proficient in re
 viewing the management strategies for specific neuromuscular disorders.\n
