New MS Academy in Scotland launching and 6th national primary care conference in Glasgow
NewsWe’re excited to announce the launch of a new Academy in Scotland. While this isn’t a new initiative, we’re proud to deliver our first event under this Academy, the “6th national MS conference for primary care in Scotland” in June.
This Academy will build on the incredible work of Mhairi Coutts, who founded and championed this education over the years.
“As a practitioner, it's really good to keep learning, to keep growing, to keep doing things that are outside our comfort zone. Many clinicians tell me the MS meetings are the one day they put in their calendar every year”
