16th Annual Richardson/Lang Day

Neurology

Established in 2006, the Richardson/Lang Day (renamed from formerly J.C. Richardson Day and officially announced in June 2018) is an annual half-day afternoon event to various subspecialties where faculty members were asked to present in either a debate or a "what's hot" format. This event was meant to be lighthearted as our faculty discuss opposing arguments.

Program speakers are:

Aaron Izenberg (Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, Sunnybrook Research Institute)
David Tang-Wai (University Health Network: Toronto Western Hospital)

Neuromuscular: “Skin biopsy for small fiber neuropathy is useless!"
