Welcome to the 13th Annual Miami Neuroscience Symposium!

Neuroscience is a rapidly advancing field, with new discoveries, technologies and treatment modalities emerging regularly. The Miami Neuroscience Symposium presents a comprehensive, evidence-based curriculum for clinicians and healthcare practitioners specializing in the treatment and support of patients within neuroscience. The program is designed to address the full continuum of care, from emergency intervention to rehabilitation. Through interactive lectures, case-based discussions and the integration of emerging tools, participants will gain practical, immediately applicable insights to improve outcomes in complex neurological care.

What to Expect

• Keeping Pace with Advances: Neuroscience research continually uncovers new insights into the brain, nervous system and associated disorders. The distinguished faculty will guide engaging sessions to share the latest innovative and evidence-based clinical methodologies, designed to enhance patient outcomes across the entire spectrum of neuroscience care.
• Interdisciplinary - Interprofessional Collaboration: Neuroscience care often requires collaboration across multiple disciplines, including neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry, pharmacy, nursing, rehabilitation and more. The Miami Neuroscience Symposium will facilitate interdisciplinary learning and foster collaboration among healthcare professionals.
• Enhancing Clinical Skills: By presenting complex case studies and innovative treatment strategies, this symposium will help clinicians enhance their diagnostic and therapeutic skills. The expert faculty will provide practical insights that can be directly applied to patient care.
• Networking and Professional Development: Engage with experts and peers from diverse specialties to exchange ideas, explore best practices and expand professional connections that support high-quality patient care.

Learning Objectives

• Summarize current advances and clinical best practices in the diagnosis and management of a broad range of neurological conditions, including stroke, epilepsy, neurodegenerative disorders, brain tumors and neuromuscular diseases.
• Evaluate and implement evidence-based strategies for managing patients with headaches, dysautonomia, movement disorders and complex pain syndromes using pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic therapies.
• Apply updated treatment guidelines and emerging technologies in acute ischemic stroke, subarachnoid hemorrhage, Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) and post-cardiac arrest care, incorporating multidisciplinary approaches to neurocritical care.
• Discuss innovations in spine care and neurosurgical techniques, including spinal oncology, radiosurgery, cervical arthroplasty and surgical approaches for Moya-Moya disease and malignant gliomas.
• Interpret the clinical utility of neuroimaging and point-of-care diagnostics for timely evaluation of stroke, epilepsy and neuromuscular conditions.
• Enhance patient counseling and interdisciplinary collaboration through case-based discussions focused on stroke nutrition, epilepsy diet therapies, rehabilitation planning and long-term care after brain tumor resection.
• Identify the role of deep brain stimulation, botulinum toxin injections and high-intensity focused ultrasound (HiFu) in treating Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders.
• Review key ethical, prognostic and rehabilitative considerations in the care of patients with chronic neurological conditions, including dementia, epilepsy and cancer-related neurologic impairment.
• Recognize clinical pearls and uncommon presentations through interactive case panels designed to challenge diagnostic reasoning and highlight nuanced care pathways.
