Inflamma­tory Brain Disorders Conference 2024

The 2024 Inflammatory Brain Disorders Conference has been planned by the same individuals as the 2021, 2022, and 2023 Inflammatory Brain Disorders Conferences and is being hosted by our sister organization, Neuroimmune Institute, in partnership with Neuroimmune Foundation and with our Stanford and UCSF collaborators. Neuroimmune Institute was founded with the goal of rapidly advancing clinical medicine and research focused on immunopsychiatric, neuroimmune, and inflammatory brain conditions as well as autism.

While Neuroimmune Foundation and Neuroimmune Institute have a similar mission and collaboration, donations to Neuroimmune Foundation will not be used for Neuroimmune Institute activities nor vice versa.

Neuroimmune Institute offers continuing medical education on a broad array of topics beyond the scope of Neuroimmune Foundation’s mission.

What are Inflammatory Brain Disorders?

Individuals with inflammatory brain conditions often present with prominent neuropsychiatric symptoms that can be confusing for physicians and families alike. Our CME events feature nationally and internationally renowned experts skilled in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches who present a diverse range of emerging clinical and research challenges, insights, and advances in the field of inflammatory brain disorders. Presentations are carefully selected to familiarize attendees with rapidly developing research and to educate clinicians on the latest understanding of treatment options.
