Dr. Amanda Piquet – CAR T Therapy for Autoimmune Disease
October 21, 2024
Many thanks to Dr. Amanda Piquet, Board of Directors & Medical Advisory Board Member, Autoimmune Encephalitis Alliance for speaking at our November 2024 AEA Provider Monthly Education Series and presenting CAR T Therapy for Autoimmune Disease.
We discussed the background of the CAR T therapy and its more recent use in autoimmune disease. We also discussed current examples of how this is being explored in neurologic disorders such as Stiff Person Syndrome.
