The 8th Joint ACTRIMS-ECTRIMS Meeting

The 8th Joint ACTRIMS-ECTRIMS Meeting, the largest international conference focused on Multiple Sclerosis (MS) research, was held in a virtual format from September 11-13, 2020 , with a special encore session featuring Late-Breaking News and a COVID-19 Session on September 26.

Every three years, ACTRIMS and ECTRIMS organize a joint meeting to encourage knowledge exchange and bring together professionals from around the world.

Given the worldwide impact of COVID-19, the 8th Joint ACTRIMS-ECTRIMS Meeting took place virtually. View all scientific sessions, e-posters and teaching courses from MSVirtual2020.

At this virtual conference – MSVirtual2020 – world class scientists, neurologists, clinicians and researchers from around the world presented the latest research, clinical trial outcomes and technology and diagnostic advances in multiple sclerosis (MS).

Key topics included:

  • Cutting-edge research into the cause of MS, ranging from epigenetics and genetic factors, to defining the intricate immunological and pathological pathways that inform drug discovery and therapeutic interventions.
  • Radiological advances and machine learning approaches and how these techniques can help us better understand MS.
  • Biomarkers of disease activity and response to therapy, which is critical for the future of personalized medicine in MS.
  • The outcomes of recent clinical trials of new agents and interventions, innovations in symptomatic and rehabilitative therapy, and current research on MS and COVID-19.

Learning & Program Objectives

The themes for this conference, designed by the MSVirtual2020 Scientific Program Committee are clinical, pathogenesis, translational, and environmental/genetic factors and were derived from past attendee input and emerging studies and literature.
MSVirtual2020 key areas for education:

  • Therapeutic strategies for suppressing disease activity and disability accumulation in individuals with radiologically isolated syndrome, relapsing-remitting MS and progressive MS
  • Efficacy of current disease-modifying therapies across clinical subsets of individuals with MS
  • Role of innate immune cells in pathogenic and reparative pathways in MS
  • Relationship between the gut, microbiome, and disease activity in individuals with MS
  • Advances in imaging and visual system parameters in the diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring of individuals with MS
  • Integration of information on environmental, lifestyle, age-related, and genetic/ epigenetic factors in MS risk and clinical course
  • Use of machine learning approaches in predicting MS risk and clinical course
