ACTRIMS Forum 2021

The ACTRIMS Forum is a translational science meeting highlighting novel and rigorous scientific discoveries made in MS that advance our understanding of research and clinical care of MS patients.

The inaugural ACTRIMS Forum, held in New Orleans in February 2016, was a great success with over 600 participants, well surpassing the originally projected attendance of 250. Year after year, the Forum continues to have record-breaking participation with over 1,750 virtual attendees in 2021.

The ACTRIMS Forum will be of value to researchers, clinicians, residents, students and postdoctoral fellows who have an interest in the cellular, molecular, neural and social networks within MS research and treatment fields.
