Description
This episode features a discussion about autoimmune neurological diseases,
including the rare stiff person syndrome (SPS) that affects Canadian
superstar Céline Dion. Our guest is Amanda Piquet, MD, associate professor
of neurology and director of the autoimmune neurology program at the
University of Colorado School of Medicine. Piquet, whose team is conducting
groundbreaking research on autoimmune neurologic disorders, has treated
Dion’s SPS for over two years at UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital.
Piquet calls the $2 million philanthropic investment her team received from
the Céline Dion Foundation a turning point in the understanding of SPS and
other autoimmune neurologic diseases.
