Michael J. Bresnan Child Neurology Course

Live content: September 21-25, 2020

Overview

Research, innovations, and knowledge in child neurology are expanding at the

fastest rate the field has ever known. The Michael J. Bresnan Child Neurology Course is an intensive review of new developments in child neurology that

will provide the practitioner with clear guides and strategies to apply these

advancements in practice.

Presented by highly skilled practitioners in all domains of child neurology, course

content will range from the fundamentals of the field to the latest evidence from

translational research and clinical trials that should influence the practice of child

neurology, including current topics such as the neurological complications of

COVID-19. Subject matter experts from the Department of Neurology at Boston

Children’s Hospital will serve as the core faculty for the course.

Course Attendees To maximize participants’ learning potential, the course has been optimized

to meet varying learning needs of different practitioners and disciplines.

Child neurology specialists and sub-specialists will engage with renowned

experts to learn about the latest developments in clinical child neurology, with

opportunities for questions and case discussions.

In addition to child neurology specialists, primary care and general practitioners

as well as specialists from developmental-behavioral pediatrics, psychology,

psychiatry, emergency medicine, hospital medicine, and more will also greatly

benefit from the course. For a variety of childhood neurologic disorders,

evidence exists that primary care pediatricians are in a key position to identify

these disorders early. Because timely identification can lead to outcome-altering

improvements, it is essential that general practitioners be more effective in this

identification and early referral and management. This course helps close that

gap. It also empowers non-neurologists to partner with neurologists in the

optimal acute and ongoing care of children with neurologic disorders.

Course Format To serve our attendees’ needs, the 2020 Bresnan Course is a fully on-line

offering. Opportunities to interact with the speakers and the content will be

maximized through live panels, Q&A, and audience interaction technologies,

while convenience will be maintained with other sessions pre-recorded for

flexible viewing. A total of 36.25* AMA PRA Category 1 credits will be presented

as follows:

• 14 hours of live/interactive presentations during the week of

September 21-25, 2020

• 22.25 hours of pre-recorded presentations available online for a period before,

during, and after that week
