🌟 What a memorable day for the SMN research community in Lyon!
On August 25th, scientists from different horizons came together in Lyon for the symposium “Advances in SMN Research: From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutic Strategies.”
Throughout the day, we had the opportunity to share our latest results, challenge ideas, discuss common interests and explore new perspectives and collaborations. With one goal in mind: to better understand spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and advance new solutions for patients.
This is also what research is all about: bringing people together, sharing ideas, asking questions, challenging each other and, above all, sharing the passion to go further.
Our warmest thanks to our outstanding speakers — Brunhilde WIRTH, Olivier BINDA, Florence RAGE, Serena STANGA, Nathalie DIDIER and Ambra GIGLIA-MARI — for the quality of their presentations and for the stimulating discussions they inspired.
A very special thank you to Lise-Marie DONNIO, whose dedication, energy and meticulous work made this symposium possible.
We are also deeply grateful to everyone who joined us in Lyon, to our online participants, and to all our collaborators who could not be with us in person but remain an essential part of this research community.
Finally, our sincere thanks to our sponsors and institutional supporters: AFM-Téléthon, INMG-PGNM, INSERM, and the Région Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes through the Programme Ambition Internationale, for their support.We leave this symposium energized by the ideas exchanged, the connections strengthened and the collaborations ahead.
Thank you to everyone who made this day such a special moment for the SMN research community!💙
