Join Us for ALL IN
The 4th International Conference on DADA2 is October 6th, 2023, in Bethesda, Maryland - just outside Washington, DC, and very close to the National Institutes of Health (NIH)!
Hyatt Regency Bethesda
One Bethesda Metro Center 7400 Wisconsin Ave Bethesda, Maryland
8:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time in the U.S.)
Reception to follow
This year, our theme is ALL IN - a nod to how it will take all of us to find a cure. Every question answered, every conversation had, every discovery made adds to the meaning of our work and propels us forward. So join us – whether you’re a physician, researcher, patient or family member.
Specifically, we will launch the world's first-ever DADA2 Patient Registry and Natural History Study, which allows patients to securely contribute their daily life experience with DADA2 to the clinical research for a more complete picture of the disease. We need everyone there to make the launch a success.
Today
Registration is free and easy. We offer both in person and online options, though we hope as many people will join us in person as possible.
