About the Conference
It will have been seven years since the First NINDS Workshop to Define the Diagnostic Criteria for Traumatic Encephalopathy Syndrome (TES) and eleven years since the First NINDS/NIBIB Consensus Meeting to Define Neuropathological Criteria for the Diagnosis of CTE. Since then, there have been new advances in both the clinical and neuropathological spheres and we will convene a new meeting to showcase these advancements and plan for the future, both in terms of research and clinical care.
