CEO Katherine Beaverson emphasized that the event provides a critical space for stakeholders to navigate the recent breakthroughs and setbacks in the field. The agenda is built around multi-dimensional care, with specific tracks dedicated to the lived experience of patients, including sessions for newly diagnosed families, teens, and siblings.
Technical discussions will span the latest in exon-skipping approaches and the future of gene therapy, alongside essential guidance on transition planning and mental health.
