Description
The upcoming 5th Annual DEBRA Brasil Congress, scheduled to take place on October 4th and 5th, 2024, at Casa Melhoramentos in São Paulo.
Event Highlights:
- Venue: The congress will be hosted at Casa Melhoramentos, a historic and prestigious venue in São Paulo, providing an ideal setting for this significant gathering.
- Keynote Speaker: We are honored to have Dr. Peter Marinkovich, one of the world’s foremost researchers in Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), delivering a keynote address. His presence underscores the global importance of this event and offers attendees invaluable insights from the forefront of EB research and treatment.
- Program: The congress will feature a comprehensive agenda, including sessions on clinical practices, the latest research, patient care, and advocacy. Highlights include discussions on Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs), neonatal care, and innovative treatments.
- Workshops: In addition to the main sessions, attendees can participate in hands-on workshops covering essential topics such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and legal rights for EB patients.
- Petit Comité: On October 3rd, we will host a petit comité—a select gathering of experts for in-depth discussions on research initiatives, clinical trials, and future collaborations.
Past Success: Last year, our 4th Annual DEBRA Brasil Congress in Belo Horizonte, MG, attracted 167 in-person attendees and approximately 200 online participants. The strong turnout reflects the growing significance of this event within the EB community.
We believe this congress will be an invaluable opportunity for the EB community to connect, learn, and share experiences.
