Register Today for PPMD’s 2020 Annual Conference – Virtual Edition!

Registration is now open for PPMD’s 2020 Virtual Annual Conference! This is an extraordinary time for our global community, as we slowly begin re-emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic. During this time, our always resilient community continues to inspire and energize PPMD.

Though we can’t connect in person this year, there was no way PPMD could let the summer go without hosting our Annual Conference. So this year, we are gathering virtually! From Wednesday, July 22 – Saturday, July 25, we will be offering the kind of robust, informative agenda you have come to expect from PPMD over the last 25 years.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM THE VIRTUAL CONFERENCE?

The 2020 PPMD Virtual Annual Conference will feature presentations on:

  • Gene Therapy
  • Current clinical trials
  • Important care topics
  • Quality of life issues
  • Cardiac implications in Duchenne
  • Carrier health information
  • Preclinical research discussions
  • And a look ahead at promising research strategies and other ways to move the Duchenne landscape, even in the midst of the ongoing health crisis

In addition to conference presentations, panel discussions, and Q&A sessions, PPMD’s 2020 Virtual Annual Conference will include:

  • Dedicated sessions, both social and educational, for newly diagnosed families
  • Dedicated sessions for teens and adults living with Duchenne
  • The ability to schedule one on one sessions with Certified Genetic Counselors from The Duchenne Registry, a Child Behavioral Educational Specialist, Physical Therapists, and other experts throughout the conference
  • A robust online poster session providing information on research related to Duchenne
  • Social activities for moms, dads, grandparents and, of course, teens and adults
