The CMT Research Foundation unites the voices of patients, researchers, pharma companies, investors and regulatory agencies to develop treatments for CMT.
This event takes place over three days. Thursday and Friday are scientific meetings tailored toward investors, researchers and scientists working to better understand, and ultimately, end CMT. Saturday is primarily for patients and their families, providing a chance to interact with and inform the research community that is working so hard on their behalf.
