Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Nov 18, 2026 - Nov 19, 2026
Foundational / Beginner
1141 <p>This MDS-AS Hyperkinetic and Hypokinetic Movement Disorders Course for Neurologists will cover both hyperkinetic disorders—including tremor, dystonia, chorea, and paroxysmal movement disorders—and hypokinetic disorders, with a major focus on Parkinson’s disease and Parkinsonian syndromes. Through expert-led lectures, case-based discussions, and practical clinical sessions, participants will learn contemporary approaches to differential diagnosis, use of diagnostic tools, pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments, and long-term patient management. The course will also address challenges unique to resource-constrained settings and highlight strategies for improving movement disorder care in Africa.</p><p> </p><p><strong></strong><strong><span style="color:#990000;">APPLICATION DEADLINE</span></strong><span style="color:#990000;">:</span> September 8, 2026</p> Anxiety/Depression, Autonomic Dysfunction, Botulinum toxin, Chorea/Huntingtons Disease (HD), Clinical Trials, Cognitive impairment/Dementia, Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Corticobasal Syndrome (CBS)/Corticobasal Degeneration (CBD), Dopaminergic medications, Dystonia, Exercise, Freezing of Gait (FOG), Hyperkinetic Movement Disorders, Impulse Control Disorders, Infusion therapy, Lewy-body dementia (LBD), Medications for motor complications, Medications for motor symptoms, Medications for non-motor symptoms, Multiple Systems Atrophy (MSA), Myoclonus, Neuropsychiatric symptoms, Non-motor Symptoms/Disorders, Nutritional Therapy, Parkinson Disease/Hypokinetic Movement Disorders, Parkinson's Disease (PD), Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), Psychosis, Sensory disorders, Sleep Disorders, Speech Disorders, Therapies-Other, Therapies-Pharmacological, Tics/Tourettes syndrome (TS), Tremor/Essential Tremor (ET) 618 0.00 https://education.movementdisorders.org/Detail/1141/MDS-AS-Hyperkinetic-and-Hypokinetic-Movement-Disorders-Course-for-Neurologists https://education.movementdisorders.org/Upload/ActivityImages/26AFRMOVE_202x108291642.png https://education.movementdisorders.org/Upload/BannerImages/26AFRMOVE_734x404(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)767105.png 2026-11-18T00:00:00 2026-11-19T00:00:00 Addis Ababa <p><br></p><p><br></p> MDS Education <p><a href="https://d1t84l7yt030ad.cloudfront.net/FroalaFiles/LMS%20Course%20Schedule_04082026095038.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><img src="https://s3-us-east-2.amazonaws.com/mds-lms/FroalaFiles/Course schedule_23012024043738.png" style="width: 125px; height: 125px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"></a><a href="https://d1t84l7yt030ad.cloudfront.net/FroalaFiles/LMS%20Course%20Schedule_04082026095038.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Course Schedule</strong></a><strong> </strong><strong> <a href="https://form.jotform.com/250635497536163" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><img src="https://s3-us-east-2.amazonaws.com/mds-lms/FroalaFiles/Travel assistance_23012024043912.png" style="width: 125px; height: 125px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"></a></strong><a href="https://form.jotform.com/262165449416158" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Travel Bursary</strong></a><a href="https://d1t84l7yt030ad.cloudfront.net/FroalaFiles/LMS%20Faculty%20Listing_04082026102054.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><img src="https://s3-us-east-2.amazonaws.com/mds-lms/FroalaFiles/Faculty Details_23012024043924.png" style="width: 125px; height: 125px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"></a><a href="https://d1t84l7yt030ad.cloudfront.net/FroalaFiles/LMS%20Faculty%20Listing_04082026102054.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Course Faculty</strong></a></p><p><em>Schedule as of August 4, 2026</em></p><p><br></p><p><strong>REGISTRATION FEES</strong><br><strong>Members:</strong> $20 USD</p><p><strong>Non-Members:</strong> $150</p><p>*<em>Non-members wishing to apply for MDS Membership to receive the MDS Member rate for this course will need to apply for membership no later than 2 weeks in advance of the close of registration.</em></p><p><a href="https://s3-us-east-2.amazonaws.com/mds-lms/FroalaFiles/VISA%20STATEMENT%20CANCELLATION%20LANGUAGE_24012024041714.pdf">Click here to view the MDS Regional Course Cancellation Policy & Visa Assistance Information</a></p><p><br><strong>SCHEDULE OVERVIEW</strong><br>Day 1: Wednesday, November 18, 2026 from 13:00 - 19:00<br>Day 2: Thursday, November 19, 2026 from 08:30 - 19:00<br><br><span style="background-color: null;"><strong>COURSE VENUE</strong></span></p><p>Elilly International Hotel</p><p>Addis Ababa, Ethiopia</p><p><br></p><p><strong>LEARNING OBJECTIVES</strong></p><p>Upon completion of this activity, learners will be able to:</p><p>1.
