Event Description

Friday, June 21 was dedicated to Investigators and held at CHoP. This is where Investigators had the opportunity to present STXBP1 research and interact with other scientists studying the gene. Investigators were able to interact with our families during the banquet and poster session that night. On Saturday, June 22, our sessions were held at the Sheraton University Center and that is where parents, family, and other caregivers had the opportunity to learn about research that is built and presented for the non-scientific community.

Your participation at the SIFM was invaluable to the STXBP1 Foundation as discussions and information gleaned will assist the Foundation and the Scientific Advisory Board to build a scientific roadmap. This output will inform future decisions and drive future investments by the STXBP1 Foundation. Through this interaction we hope to drive research in a manner that has the greatest potential to provide better therapies and ultimately, a cure.

SCIENCE + LOVE = CURE

It is our belief that the relationships formed between researchers and families will improve the quality of research and ultimately, a cure.
