T21RS International Conference 2017
Chicago, 7-11 June 2017
After the succesful first edition of the bi-annual T21RS International Conference in 2015 in Paris (France), the second T21RS International Conference was held from June 7-11 in the beautiful city of Chicago (USA).
The international Down syndrome research community gathered for the T21RS International Conference 2017 at the Feinberg School of Medicine of Northwestern University in the heart of the city of Chicago. Presentations and posters franged from basic to clinical research, with one entire day dedicated to Down syndrome and Alzheimer’s disease, reflecting new research opportunities to serve both the trisomic and euploid populations. The T21RS Science & Society Symposium included family-oriented presentations on choosing to participate or not in clinical trials and establishing structures to integrate medical care and social support for the community.

SFN Neuroscience meeting, Chicago: Minisymposia
New Perspectives for the Rescue of Cognitive Disability in Down Syndrome
Chair: Renata Bartesaghi
University of Bologna
Co-Chair: Diana Bianchi, MD
Tufts University School of Medicine
Date & Time: Monday, October 19, 2015 1:30pm - 4pm Location: S105 CME: 2.5
Down syndrome is a relatively high-incidence genetic condition caused by the triplication of human chromosome 21. No therapies currently exist for the rescue of cognitive impairment in Down syndrome. This minisymposium will present exciting findings showing that it is possible to restore brain development and cognitive performance in mouse models of Down syndrome with therapies usable in humans. This knowledge provides a breakthrough for the cure and prevention of intellectual disability in Down syndrome.
