18th Annual WORLDSymposium

WORLDSymposium has become the major educational and unifying activity of Lysosomal Disease Researchers, and has evolved into a highly interactive research activity. The underlying theme “transitioning molecular biology to human therapies” seeks to elucidate the challenges—and highlight the successes—in bringing bench discoveries into successful clinical therapies.

The main emphasis of the meeting remains the same: to assess the mechanisms, and obstacles, for taking bench research into human therapy.

The WORLDSymposium research program is focused on the 3 main areas of lysosomal disease research: basic and bench science, translational research, and clinical trials and outcomes. This progression through the three stages of research is a signature feature of WORLDSymposium and is enthusiastically received based on attendee evaluation.
