May 2024 Symposium

The Spring Cure JM Medical Symposium in partnership with Duke University happened May 23rd, 2024, virtually, with presentations from world-leading researchers and clinicians on advancements in basic research, translational studies, and best practice clinical care in juvenile dermatomyositis.

For clinicians, researchers, and healthcare professionals unable to attend the event, we are honored to share the full virtual symposium recording. This video features presentations in order, with the recording separating each presentation topic into YouTube chapters.

3.0 CME (pending credits are available through Duke University by watching the recording).

Additional peer support resources for clinicians of juvenile myositis patients and families can be found at www.curejm.org/clinicians.
