SPG11 and SPG15 Advisory Meeting 2018 - The Maddi Foundation

SPG11 and SPG15 Advisory Meeting 2018

SPG11 and SPG15 Advisory meeting at Cambridge Institute of Medical Research

Introduction:

On behalf of The Maddi Foundation and Cambridge Institute of Medical Research, we would like to thank everyone who attended and appreciate the willingness to participate in this first ever meeting as a focus on SPG11 and SPG15.

We were extremely fortunate to have so many impressive people attend the meeting from all over Europe in the effort to present their findings to find cure to treat these devastating diseases. It was fascinating to hear about the different interests and avenues into SPG11 and SPG15 either from a clinical or cell biology perspective, and strategies for therapeutic intervention.

During this meeting there were further action plans put in place:

• To prepare a second meeting focussed on SPG11 and SPG15

• To share patient lists and questionaires/protocols between those interested in collating their data into a registry.

Maintain links and dialogues between attendees to see if there are any avenues for collaborative projects, either through joint grants or less formal arrangements (like the exchange of cell lines)
