20th International Workshop on Fragile X & Other Neurodevelopmental Disorders

The International Workshop on Fragile X and Other Neurodevelopmental Disorders has been held biannually since 1983, when a small group of experts were invited to the first workshop in Washington, DC, to share clinical and genetic data for a better delineation of the syndrome. The causal gene for fragile X syndrome was discovered in 1991 and announced at the fifth workshop in Strasbourg, France.

This 20th edition of the workshop will bring together basic and clinical researchers. Participants at these meetings include biologists, pharmacologists, neurophysiologists, neuropathologists, medical geneticists, neurologists, psychiatrists, and experts in clinical trials. The workshop's format promotes interdisciplinary interactions between investigators at all levels of their careers and is designed to maximize productive discussion among participants.

The workshop will welcome investigators from academia, pharma, and biotech industry who specialize in a broad variety of neurodevelopmental disorders. Cutting edge views of the following research areas will be featured:

• Fragile X and FMR1-related diseases

• Other XLID and autosomal ID conditions

• Mechanisms of disease using human and animal models

• Unstable repeats in autism and neurodevelopmental disorders

• Epigenetic signatures and diagnostic biomarkers

• Therapeutic development
