Educational Outreach
Attendance at medical conferences helps us to connect with doctors who have little information about PWS, as well as to engage and learn from doctors who are already actively involved in supporting people with PWS in their countries and regions. Hosting awareness booths at conferences enables us to share information about the services and resources we offer, including free diagnostic testing and grants to support conferences and workshops, as well as to learn about the specific challenges facing professionals around the world.
Please find below some recent examples of conferences we have attended or will be working at soon.
