Washington, DC Metabolic & Rare Bone Disease Club Dinner March
March 27 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm EDT
Please join the newly founded Washington, DC Metabolic & Rare Bone Disease Club on March 27th for the first in a series of quarterly dinners focused on new developments in research, diagnosis, and treatment of metabolic and rare bone disorders.
Our kick-off event will be on March 27th at the Pooks Hill Marriott and will feature Eric Rush, MD, of Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City speaking on An Overview of Hypophosphatasia (HPP) presented by Alexion Pharmaceuticals. Our meeting will start with a reception at 6:30 pm, followed by dinner at 7:15 pm. Dr. Rush will lecture for approximately one hour starting at 7:30 pm.
The goal of the Washington, DC Metabolic & Rare Bone Disease Club is to bring together endocrinologists, rheumatologists, geneticists and orthopaedic surgeons with easy access to innovative and robust data as well as to help them expand their professional relationships across the varied disciplines that care for these challenging patients. We want to include BOTH pediatric and adult practitioners as the natural history of these disorders is changing rapidly, and we want to help improve care across the age span. Perhaps most importantly, we want to extend this invitation to interested physicians, researchers, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, genetic counselors, fellows, medical students and other professionals interested in this rapidly changing field as we seek to grow the community of clinicians focused on improving care for these thought-provoking disorders.
The programs will be science (not product) focused presentations sponsored by industry partners that do not provide CME.
Dues will be $50 for practicing physicians/researchers and $25 for physician assistants, nurse practitioners and genetic counselors. There will be no fee for fellows, residents, or medical students. Dinners will be free and will offer a virtual attendance option.
