Autoimmune Conditions Associated with Thymoma
Their frequency and relevance

Presented by M. Isabel Leite
M Isabel Leite graduated in Medicine from the University of Porto, Portugal, and gained her DPhil at the University of Oxford in 2008. Since then, she has developed her clinical and research career on Autoimmune Neurology, within the Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences. While her clinical expertise, research interest and educational activities are broad and cover autoimmune diseases of central and peripheral nervous system, her main focus is on autoimmune disorders of the neuromuscular junction, in particular myasthenia gravis and Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome, including those associated with malignancy (e.g. thymoma and lung cancer) as well as associated with immunotherapies. She is principal investigator in several research projects and has been awarded research grants, including from Myaware and Muscular Dystrophy UK. She was made Associate Professor of Neurology in 2019.
The presentation will be followed by a Q&A.
