7th International Workshop for Glycosylation Defects in Muscular Dystrophies
Since its beginning in 2008, the International Workshop for Glycosylation Defects in Muscular Dystrophies has provided an avenue to bring together top physicians and scientists from around the world in an effort to identify mechanisms and targets for treating glycosylation related muscular dystrophies. Over the years this workshop has evolved from a primary focus on disease mechanisms and possible targets to a broader focus on advancing clinical trials, treatments and patient endpoints. This process has been facilitated through collaboration and communication between the scientists and physicians present at the workshop. The 7th International Workshop plans to continue this direction with a larger focus on clinical trial readiness, preparation and progression.
This workshop aims to:
- Continue exploring new insights and the mechanism(s) involved in glycosylation related muscular dystrophies.
- Present data for new and current therapeutics.
- Present data and information on current and future clinical trials and patient needs.
As always, the overall goal of this workshop is to facilitate communication and collaboration to further current and developing therapies for clinical trials as well as present new and continuing pre-clinical data with a focus on drug and gene therapies.
All programs will be held at:
Charlotte Marriott SouthPark
