The Annual SMA Conference is an invaluable resource for the entire SMA community and is an opportunity to strengthen the connections among individuals with SMA, their families, as well as researchers and healthcare providers.
Our Annual SMA Conference is the largest spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) conference in the world. Through the conference, we bring together researchers, healthcare professionals, individuals with SMA, and their families to network, learn, and collaborate. Cure SMA has been hosting the Annual SMA Conference since 1988, and it has become a weekend filled with a wide variety of activities, including:
- Educational workshops.
- Keynote sessions with leading researchers and clinicians.
- Family-friendly poster session.
- Memorable children’s program.
- Meet and greet with a family fun fest.
- Teen and adult social activities.
- PJ party and movie night.
- Dance party.
