The Video Challenge is a masterclass in clinical reasoning. It offers an unforgettable window into the diversity and complexity of our field.

Case Submissions

Specialists, centers, and country-based groups can submit your most interesting Movement Disorders cases for possible presentation at the MDS Video Challenge.

Only one case can be submitted by individuals and individual centers. If a country-based Movement Disorders group is collating cases for the country from multiple centers, they can submit multiple cases, but only a single case can be submitted per group member or institution.

A committee with representation from around the world will select the most interesting and educational cases for presentation at the event. 

Submission guidelines:

  • Cases should not be presented as an abstract in the Poster Areas. Cases will not be accepted if they have been previously published.
  • Letters of Intent should provide a brief summary of the case including the diagnosis and why the case should be considered for presentation.
  • If the Letter of Intent is selected for the 2nd round, the PowerPoint presentation should include a very brief clinical description and a well-edited video lasting no more than 2 minutes.
  • All cases should have a known diagnosis that will be shared at the end of the presentation.
  • If your case is selected, you will designate a fellow or junior MDS Member to present the case. 

Awards will be given for the most interesting and challenging cases. 

The deadline for 2026 submissions has passed.

Important Dates

Submissions will reopen in early 2027.
