June 16 - June 19, 2022 ~ Anaheim, CA
Welcome to the 2022 Annual SMA Conference!
|
The 2022 Annual SMA Conference will be held in Anaheim, California at the Disneyland Hotel from Thursday, June 16 – Sunday, June 19, 2022. Every year, Cure SMA sponsors a conference to bring together the leading SMA researchers, clinicians, and families living with SMA. Cure SMA has been hosting the Annual SMA Conference since 1988. We look forward to reuniting as a community at this year’s conference in order to lend each other support and strength, and to learn about the latest advances in research and care. As always, the Family, Researcher, and Clinical Care Conferences run alongside each other. Through the conferences, we bring together researchers, healthcare professionals, and families to network, learn, and collaborate. The Annual SMA Conference is the largest conference in the world for those affected by SMA, and also for those involved in providing support and care for SMA patients. The weekend is filled with a wide variety of workshops, general sessions with leading researchers, a family-friendly research poster session, and more—plus fun events like our meet & greet/family fun fest, as well as teen socials and adults with SMA networking activities. There are also many opportunities to connect and interact with other SMA families and individuals with SMA while receiving first hand updates from the researchers. Please Note: You must complete your conference registration with Cure SMA prior to reserving your hotel room, for the special room rate of $279 at the Disneyland Hotel, $259 at Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel, and $349 at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa per night plus tax.

I want to applaud you all for a great conference. The amount of work you have done to put it together is remarkable and it shows – BRAVO! My husband and I were so impressed and energized by the conference and by Cure SMA. I have followed the website for years but gained new appreciation for the organization and its work at the conference. My husband and I both attended many conferences of various types in our professional careers and both of us felt this was the best organized, best thought out and well run conference we have ever attended. I was also impressed with the equal care and thought given to adults with SMA as well as the families and children. |
