The ERN EURO-NMD Working Group on Peripheral Nerve Diseases is pleased to present a Webinar series dedicated to Dysimmune and inflammatory neuropathies. This seven-episode series brings together clinicians, researchers, and patients to discuss a range of neuropathies and address key topics, including (but not limited to) challenges in diagnosis, advances in treatment, guidelines, emerging biomarkers, electrodiagnostic patterns, and the role of imaging in clinical practice.
For the final episode, we invite you to participate in a Q&A session dedicated to Quality of life and management of disability in dysimmune and inflammatory neuropathies, where a clinician and a patient will answer questions submitted in advance through the form provided below. Anyone interested in the topic, including patients, is welcome to submit a question. Please keep your question succinct, relevant to the topic, and avoid personal or case-specific details.
