Welcome to the website of the conference LAMA2 Muscular Dystrophy (LAMA2-MD): Paving the road to therapy, organised by Maastricht University and the Dutch foundation Voor Sara, in cooperation with Lama 2-Europe. This 3-day conference is largely funded by a grant of the European Joint Programme for Rare Disease. The goal of the conference is to exchange knowledge and research progress on LAMA2-MD and establish fruitful collaborations between researchers, clinicians and patient representatives. By day3, we will have established a sustainable, international research- and patient care network on LAMA2-MD. We have compiled a broad list of international LAMA2-MD experts who will be talking onsite about topics such as: ‘Clinical manifestations, clinical history and trial readiness’, ‘New roads to Therapy’ and ‘Genotype-Phenotype Correlations, Biomarkers and models’. Half a day of the conference is organised by patients and patient representatives, which will consist of lectures and interactive sessions with researchers and clinicians. The LAMA2-MD conference is an onsite  conference, with a restricted possibility to attend online via Zoom. To get access please register here.
