Carle Illinois College of Medicine General Events

Mark your calendars for an enlightening seminar as part of the Distinguished Seminar Series, commemorating 20 years of excellence in Bioengineering. On September 25th, Dr. Manuel Hernandez, Teaching Associate Professor at the Carle Illinois College of Medicine, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, will delve into critical issues facing older adults with multiple sclerosis (OAMS).

Dr. Hernandez will share groundbreaking research on the intersection of mobility and cognitive impairments in OAMS. Utilizing advanced mobile neuroimaging and machine learning technologies, he will explore the underlying mechanisms of these challenges and present preliminary evidence for potential interventions aimed at improving cognitive and motor functions.

This event promises valuable insights into cutting-edge research and innovative treatment strategies, highlighting the continued advancements in Bioengineering. Join us to celebrate two decades of impactful research and learn about the latest developments in improving the quality of life for those affected by multiple sclerosis.
