Action Duchenne invites the participation of the Becker muscular dystrophy community in November!

August 24, 2017 by abzali123

On Friday 10 November 2017, the first day of our new and extended international conference will be dedicated to new horizons in pre-clinical research in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy. This is the first time you will hear these innovative updates, which have been selected by experts for the patient community.

On Saturday the 11th of November, we are delighted to announce for the first time, a half-day workshop exclusively on Becker muscular dystrophy. This workshop has been planned in partnership with our sister organisations within United Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy; Little Steps Association for children with DMD/BMD, Israel and Duchenne Parent Project Spain.

This half day workshop will focus on clinical care for Becker, therapies in development and a discussion panel with industry and members of the Becker community. We are calling out to all our colleagues, friends and contacts living with Becker to come and join us in this year’s conference, there is so much we can learn from each other and we are sure you will make new connections and friends in the process!

We do hope all families and those living with Becker are able to join us and furthermore, adults can attend for free!

We are grateful to Little Steps Association for children with DMD/BMD, for supporting the Becker muscular dystrophy workshop at this year’s conference.

Mental Health Awareness Week: Alex’s Journal

Written By Alex Berbank 15 Minutes a Day I’ve really enjoyed getting into the frame of mind to look at my mental health. Before this week I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. My ideas of what looking at my own mental health would look like weren’t accurate. I thought there would be more softly …
