Speaker: Michael C. J. Levin, MD, Professor of Neurology, Director MS Clinic and Laboratory of Viral & Demyelinating Diseases, University of Tennessee Health Science Center

The learning objectives of this presentation are:
1. To understand the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis and related diseases.
2. To understand the different clinical subtypes of multiple sclerosis
3. To understand the role that RNA binding proteins play in the pathogenesis of neurologic disease
4. To understand the contribution of autoimmunity to the RNA binding protein heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 to the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis.
