Multiple Sclerosis and Autoimmune Disorders

Dear Colleagues and Participants,

It is with great pleasure that we invite you to the 12th Baltic Conference on Multiple Sclerosis and Autoimmune Disorders, to be held in Riga. This annual gathering has become a cornerstone event for professionals dedicated to advancing the understanding and treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) and autoimmune conditions.

This year’s conference is particularly significant as we explore the latest advancements in MS, including the newly published diagnostic criteria that will be presented by our keynote speaker, Marcello Moccia. His insights promise to shape future diagnostic and treatment practices profoundly. Moreover, we will address critical topics such as managing pregnancy in MS and emerging therapeutic strategies.

One of the highlights will be the interactive session, where MS centers from the Baltic states will present clinical cases. This will offer a rich learning experience and foster collaboration among participants.

An application has been made to the UEMS EACCME® for CME/CPD accreditation of this event.

We are deeply grateful to our sponsors and supporters, whose contributions enable us to host this event in person in the vibrant city of Riga. We eagerly anticipate reconnecting with colleagues, sharing knowledge, and exchanging valuable experiences.

We look forward to welcoming you to this inspiring event.

Yours sincerely,

Conference organizing committee
