A cure for Dupuytren's- when and how?





Great news! We have started planning a research webinar, titled "A cure for Dupuytren's- how and when?"
It will take place on wednesday 28th August 2019, starting 8pm GMT and lasting about an hour we hope.

Confirmed speakers are:


Prof Dominic Furniss DM MA MBBCh FRCS(Plast) (who does research in Oxford on genetics of Dupuytren's, amongst other things) Prof Jagdeep Nanchahal BSc PhD MBBS FRCS(Plast) (the brains of the RIDD trial), Prof Duncan Angus McGrouther FRCS FRCS(Glas) FRCS(Ed) FMedSci (who used to work in Manchester and has done a lot of research there) and Drs Elizabeth Laird DipStat(Open), BSc, PGCertHE, PhD, FHEA and Emma Beamish (Drs Laird and Beamish work in Liverpool and research how to affect the extra cellular matrix to subdue our nodule forming cells).

We will be using Zoom again, so you need to register in advance, then on the day click on the link you were send after registering about 10-15 minutes in advance so you have time to download the viewer onto your device if you don't have it yet. Simples!


 

The link to register is here:
 



I hope many of you will attend, you can just watch and listen, ask questions, or ask questions afterwards and I can forward them.. an opportunity to find out what scientists are working on for us and for future generations!

Hope to see your name on the list.
