Now in its 16th year, the Mellen Center Update in Multiple Sclerosis delivers a cutting-edge, interdisciplinary symposium aimed at neurologists, immunologists, and MS-focused healthcare professionals. The 2024 update introduces a revamped format: a consolidated clinical/research track paired with a dedicated rehabilitation track — maximizing content value while minimizing overlap.
Highlights include a keynote from Dr. John Corboy, lead investigator of the DISCO-MS study, and insights on emerging therapies and diagnostic frameworks such as BTK inhibitors, neurofilament light chains, and MOGAD criteria.
The update also explores MS rehab breakthroughs like high-intensity aerobic exercise, dry needling, and high-tech mobility aids — plus pressing issues like MS in pregnancy, pediatric quality of life, and the intersection of patient care with social media narratives.
