Dr. Amanda Piquet – CAR T Therapy for Autoimmune Disease

October 21, 2024

We look forward to Dr. Amanda Piquet, Board of Directors & Medical Advisory Board Member, Autoimmune Encephalitis Alliance joining our November 2024 AEA Provider Monthly Education Series and presenting CAR T Therapy for Autoimmune Disease.

This session is scheduled for November 21, 2024 at 4:00 PM Eastern US Time and offered via Zoom.

We will discuss the background of the CAR T therapy and its more recent use in  autoimmune disease. We will also discuss current examples of how this is being explored in neurologic disorders such as Stiff Person Syndrome.


Members of the AEA Medical Advisory Board and Clinicians Network and participating fellowship programs receive monthly emails including links to register for each session.

A recording of the didactic portion of Dr. Piquet’s session will be posted here after the session for the whole AE community to view.
