This Engage Symposium will offer sessions on myasthenia gravis (MG), Pompe disease, spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), and myositis, as well as research and clinical trial updates for all diagnoses. There will also be daily living sessions that are relevant for people living with all types of neuromuscular disease such as navigating insurance, mental health, and exercise. Attendees will also have the chance to connect socially with others in the community and browse our Community Resource Hall to learn about other organizations and businesses supporting the neuromuscular community.

This program is provided at no cost, but registration is required for each person who is attending. Lunch will be provided.

MDA is pleased to have Dr. Tahseen Mozaffar, neurologist at UC Irvine chairing this Engage Symposium.
