Welcome to Taipei, the City of Azaleas!
Your hosts, Taiwan PWS Association, IPWSO and the Taiwan Rare Disease Foundation invite you to join us in Tapei, Taiwan for the 7th international conference for scientists, professionals, providers, caregivers, parents, and persons with PWS. Our theme, East Meets West: A New World for PWS, will allow us to expand the boundary of our knowledge of science and medical treatments; tools and skills for environmental and behavioral intervention; and the range of professional supports and services that are required for successful care and management of the person with PWS.
SPEAKERS
International experts and specialists have been selected to provide a worldview of the many aspects of genetics, endocrinology, behavioral phenomenology, and management of PWS. This conference presents an excellent opportunity for scientists, clinicians, caregivers and parents to learn from each other and to develop working relationships and partnerships that span continents. There will also be a special tribute to Pamela Eisen, past President of IPWSO.
