The ABC offers educational webinars to our members and affiliates on a wide range of topics that are of interest to the brain disease community. This format allows us to reach hundreds of individuals and easily provide education to our members. It also allows our members to participate in real time, which will allow them to ask questions of the panelists or listen when it’s convenient for them since our webinars are archived.
