Dear Colleagues,
It’s our great pleasure to invite you all to the 5th annual meeting Istanbul MS Days 2018 organized by the Neurological Research Support Society on November 2nd-4th, 2018 at Acapulco Hotel / Kyrenia , North Cyprus
We aimed at creating an interactive atmosphere at this 3 day program where current information will be exchanged under the theme “Understanding and Treating MS through ‘Specialized Cells’” during this meeting which has traditionally focused on the field of Multiple Sclerosis. The scientific program will include the following sessions:

• Six plenary sessions on Blood-Brain Barrier and Associated Cells, Oligodendrocyte- Myelin, Microglia, Age and Immune System, and Treatment following the Opening Session,
• Two separate plenary sessions on “Understanding the Diagnosis and Treatment of MS” in Turkey and globally,
• Two debate sessions on current issues of Multiple Sclerosis in daily practice,
• One special session on NMO spectrum disorders and other antibody-related central nervous system inflammatory syndromes,
• Four sessions of oral presentations of posters selected by the scientific committee.

The meeting also provides an opportunity  for you to present your work in neuroscience/MS as oral and poster presentation as in the last year. The abstract submission deadline is September 17th, 2018.  Please send your abstracts to [email protected] .
We look forward to welcoming participants from all over the world to Istanbul for Istanbul MS Days 2018!
