Moleculera Labs Webinar Series

About The Webinar

This webinar will cover information about autoimmune encephalopathies and the role of molecular mimicry in triggering these disorders. Antineuronal and basal ganglia antibody targets included in the Cunningham Panel™ of tests will be discussed, along with pre- and post-treatment cases and the symptoms associated with these targets.

Scientific research illustrates that there is a relationship between infection, inflammation, and immune dysfunction. These markers also have the ability to impact the development of neurological and psychiatric disorders. When navigating this information it can be difficult to determine if symptoms are related to mental illness, behavioral disturbances, or autoimmune encephalitis. If you are looking to learn more about this dynamic relationship between inflammation, immune dysfunction, and autoimmune conditions, then join us for this FREE educational webinar provided by Moleculera Labs.
