Across the globe, scientists and clinical researchers are working to develop effective treatments and interventions for PWS. As our understanding of this complex genetic condition continues to grow, clinical trials remain essential in transforming research into real-world solutions, helping evaluate the safety, efficacy, and potential impact of new therapies.
This online event brings together researchers, clinicians, industry partners, member associations, families and people with PWS from around the world to hear the latest developments in PWS research and clinical development.
This year’s programme will include presentations from:
- Rare Disease International (RDI)
- Palobiofarma
- ConSynance
- Neurocrine Biosciences
The meeting will also include opportunities for attendees to ask questions and engage directly with presenters.
Whether you’re a family member, caregiver, healthcare professional, researcher or person with PWS, this is an opportunity to stay informed about the latest developments and be part of the global conversation shaping the future of PWS treatment.
Further details, including the full programme, will be announced soon.

What is PWS?
Prader-Willi syndrome is a complex genetic condition. Various studies have shown that between 1 in 15,000 to 25,000 children are born with Prader-Willi syndrome and it affects all races and both sexes equally.
Free Genetic Screening
If you suspect your patient has Prader-Willi syndrome, based on the clinical signs and symptoms, but are unable to access testing in your country, then you may be able to access free genetic screening.
