October 10, 2026 | 9:00 a.m. PT

Explore real-world case studies and practical techniques for pediatric nerve conduction studies, including strategies for achieving high-quality results, improving patient comfort, and navigating the unique considerations of pediatric electrodiagnostic testing. Join us for a closer look at this engaging area of neurodiagnostic practice.

Seized by Sleep: The Narcoleptic ATTACK

Presented by: Jatin Tekchandani, MSBME, R. EEG T., RPSGT

October 20, 2026 | 7:00 p.m. ET

This presentation is a narrative journey through what we think we know about narcolepsy and what we are still missing. Described is how current tools underestimate disease burden and leave clinicians treating blind, with little objective feedback on medication efficacy or cardiovascular risk. The presentation points toward a future built on continuous, EEG‑based monitoring, automated spectral analysis, and patient‑acceptable in‑ear devices, illustrating how these technologies could finally let clinicians see real‑time sleep‑wake architecture, optimize therapy dose, and track the long‑term course of narcolepsy.

Scaling Sleep Success: How Medical-Dental Collaboration Works in Practice

Presented by: Mark Rasmus, MD, and Jamison Spencer, DMD, MS

December 1, 2026 | 11:00 a.m. PT

For nearly two decades, sleep physician Mark Rasmus, MD, and dental sleep practitioner Jamison Spencer, DMD, MS, have built a collaborative model connecting independent medical and dental practices. In this webinar, they share key lessons from thousands of patient interactions, including how to build cross-disciplinary trust, establish smooth referral pathways, and coordinate care between settings. They will also cover patient selection for oral appliance therapy (OAT), combining PAP and OAT, and the necessity of objective follow-up testing. Attendees will gain actionable strategies to launch or strengthen their own local sleep care referral networks.

Sleep as a Window into Neurodegeneration

Presented by: Mikal Williams, RPSGT, BSBA, and Jeffrey Iliff, PhD

Sleep abnormalities and disorders may be early indicators, accelerants, and potentially modifiable risk factors for neurodegeneration—from cognitive impairment to Alzheimer’s disease to dementia with Lewy bodies. Insomnia, REM sleep behavior disorder, obstructive sleep apnea, sleep fragmentation, and altered sleep architecture have all been linked to neurodegeneration.

Longitudinal home sleep studies, along with imaging studies and blood tests, may eventually expand access to data that may help clinicians identify neurodegenerative risk earlier in routine sleep practice. For now, we examine the bidirectional relationship between sleep and neurodegeneration, dive deeply into glymphatic system dysfunction, and discuss emerging approaches to clinically assess sleep-linked neurodegeneration risks.
