Juvenile Dermatomyositis: Advances in Basic Research, Translational Studies and Clinical care
This symposium, co-hosted by Duke University and Cure JM Foundation on March 12, 2022, provides important information on Juvenile Myositis research.

Dr. Sadun is a pediatric and adult rheumatologist at Duke University, a Cure JM Center of Excellence. She recently presented at the Global Conference on Myositis (GCOM) on transitioning care from pediatric rheumatology to adult care.

In May, the Cure JM Clinical Care Network was pleased to invite juvenile dermatomyositis healthcare professionals to join us virtually for the latest presentations from world-leading researchers and clinicians on advancements in basic research, translational studies, and best-practice clinical care in juvenile dermatomyositis.

In a study funded by the Cure JM Foundation and spearheaded by Dr. Younghun Han of the Baylor College of Medicine, scientists compared the DNA of more than three thousand people living with myositis to nearly twelve thousand healthy volunteers and found something striking. The major forms of myositis share much of the same genetic wiring.
