News & Events

On Wednesday, March 31, 2027, we are hosting our sixth symposium entitled Collaborative Models of Accelerating Clinical Trial Readiness in NDDs at Harvard Medical School’s Joseph B. Martin Conference Center. This day-long event will highlight groundbreaking accomplishments from the translational neuroscience research community, featuring prominent scientists from both academia and industry. The symposium showcases collaborative models—spanning academia, industry, and patient advocacy—for accelerating clinical trial readiness in NDDs, tracing the pipeline from early diagnosis through preclinical and clinical research. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with key opinion leaders and discuss the future of therapeutic development for rare genetic disorders. There is no cost to attend the symposium and it is available for in person or remote registration.
