PSP/CBD Symposium - Saturday, June 29, 10am-3pm Pacific (US time)

[rriddle]

REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN

Brain Support Network and Stanford's Movement Disorders Center are co-hosting this Progressive Supranuclear Palsy/Corticobasal Degeneration (PSP/CBD) Symposium. This is a hybrid event -- some attending in-person on Stanford's campus and many attending virtually.

Who should attend? Everyone is welcome -- those with PSP/CBD, caregivers, family members, friends, home care aides, healthcare professionals, and anyone in the community interested in learning more about PSP and CBD. (We use the acronym “CBD” to include corticobasal syndrome, or CBS.)

Date/Time: Saturday, June 29, 2024, 10am to 3pm PT (US time)

Space is limited, so register now! There are two ways to join -- virtually (online) or in-person at Stanford.
