ONE BODY: Advancing the Understanding and Treatment of Neuroimmune Psychiatric Disorders such as PANDAS & PANS
Why ONE BODY? Because the human body is a highly integrated set of systems. The deleterious effects of Immune-Mediated Neuropsychiatric Disorders such as PANDAS & PANS often extend beyond psychiatry and neurology to seriously affect other systems of the body.
Learn about how common infections can sometimes trigger the immune system to attack healthy brain tissue, resulting in life-altering brain inflammation and serious deterioration in all areas of life, including psychological, cognitive, motor, sensory, and social functioning as well as other medical conditions. These debilitating brain disorders can impact all ages. With prompt and adequate treatment, patients can return to their baseline.
Our fourth symposium will again be informed by the latest research and decades of clinical practice that our speakers are excited to share with health care practitioners, researchers, and policy makers.
Join providers from multiple disciples from across the country and around the world! Together, we can best piece together this complex puzzle and save precious lives.
Confirmed speakers include:
Andrew Baumel, MD – Pediatrician – Framingham Pediatrics
Lauren Breithaupt, PhD – Psychiatrist – Harvard Medical School
Beth Latimer, MD – Neurologist – Private Practice in Washington, DC
Juliette Madan, MD – Psychiatrist and Pediatrician – Dartmouth Health
Richard Morse, MD – Pediatric Neurologist – Dartmouth Health
Mark Pasternack, MD – Infectious Disease – Mass General Brigham

Praise from those who attended our previous Symposia:
“Informative, stimulating and well-organized!”
“Having attended many conferences that I thought were good, this was transcendent given the expertise of the speakers, their candor and their passion.”
“I feel very fortunate to have been one of the few who could be there on Saturday. It was energizing and so hopeful to be with other like minded people who are not afraid to search for the truth. I left with so much hope and inspiration.“
