Research Symposium

Jul 29 - 30, 2026

The research symposium is a proverbial “think tank” that attracts researchers from around the globe to gather and share findings on the latest advances in the field of Angelman syndrome. Rarely seen in scientific meetings, and similar to Gordon-style meetings, the ASF research symposia bring the brightest and best researchers together to share their unpublished data with others in a collaborative environment to push research toward viable treatments and therapeutics quickly and safely. The Angelman Syndrome Foundation’s Research Symposium fosters a space where diverse opinions and a wide range of expertise can unite.
