Myotonic Dystrophy Foundation Conference

Myotonic Dystrophy Foundation (MDF) invites you to attend the 2023 MDF Annual Conference – sometimes called the “DM family reunion” – kicking off with MDF Advocacy Day on Capitol Hill on Thursday, September 7th, where MDF will meet with Members of Congress and their staff to advocate for myotonic dystrophy research funding and awareness. Conference sessions will begin on Friday, September 8th, and continue through Saturday, September 9th, 2023, at the Renaissance Washington, DC Downtown Hotel.

For those arriving early, there will be Thursday evening Welcome Reception & Advocacy Awards Presentation, where MDF will recognize Senators Tim Kaine (D-VA) and Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) and their staff for their friendship and support of the myotonic dystrophy community.

This year’s program includes educational sessions exploring research, drug development, symptom management, and other critical topics for DM families, plus opportunities for formal and informal networking, wellness, and fun.
