Front Line Neurology: Advances and Innovations 2025

2025 Course Overview

Information for the 2026 course is not yet available.

Neurology is a rapidly advancing field of medicine with many subspecialties. It is critical for Neurologist and those in allied disciplines to remain up to date in these innovations to provide the best care for patients. This is a major public health challenge as neurologic disorders already impact one in three people world-wide and many neurologic conditions such as stroke and dementia are expected to continue to increase in prevalence in the coming decades.

This two-day CME course is designed to prepare clinicians to address vanguard topics in neurology including climate change and its impact on neurologic diseases, generative artificial intelligence in neurologic care, neurotherapeutics, and gene therapies.

The course is designed to increase accessibility for a global and neurodiverse audience of clinicians. Content will be offered with a novel format of videos which will be translated in selected languages to increase accessibility. Video presentations be followed by virtual live case-based discussions with world experts, Q&A sessions, and panel discussions on hot topics in Neurology. The course is accredited and taught by Harvard Medical School faculty. Speakers will include experts in vascular, cognitive, genetics, neuro-oncology, headache, movement disorders, neuro-immunology, neuromuscular disorders, epilepsy and epilepsy surgery, neuromodulation, neuro-critical care, traumatic brain injury and neurorehabilitation, global neurology, health equity, functional disorders, and climate change. Sessions will cover content in each of these disciplines including novel diagnostics and therapeutics. 

Who Should Attend

• Neurologists
• Neurosurgeons
• Psychiatrists
• Nurse Practitioners
• Physician Assistants
• Nurses 

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

• Integrate Emerging Technologies and Therapies into Neurologic Practice: Evaluate and integrate cutting-edge diagnostic and therapeutic technologies, including generative AI, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and deep brain stimulation, to enhance patient care across a variety of neurological disorders including movement disorders, epilepsy, and headache.
• Identify Global Health Dynamics and Health Disparities in Neurological Care: Identify strategies to effectively manage neurological conditions in the context of global health challenges, including the impact of climate change and health care disparities, focusing on impactful interventions that create equitable care for diverse populations.
• Demonstrate Knowledge in Neurogenetics, Neuroimmunology, and Neuro-Oncology: Demonstrate an understanding of recent advances in neurogenetics, neuroimmunology, and surgical management of neurological disorders. Participants will apply this knowledge to improve diagnostic accuracy and optimize treatment approaches for diverse neurologic disorders.
