Is this for US only members?
NO! Our symposium is International, and many patients from outside of the US attend our event!

Yes! Offering enough time for you to connect is one of our top priorities! The theme of our opening celebration is “GBS|CIDP Block Party”. You will receive a tee-shirt in which the color represents the region of the country/world that you live in. We always build in time to hear & learn from other members.

What are Global Medical Advisory Board One on Ones and How Do I Sign Up?
These are private, 15-minute conversations with our Global Medical Advisory Board Physicians. We hope that these either reassure you of your care or point you in a better direction for the future. We will open registrations for this (space is limited!) a few months before the event. You must be registered for the full event to qualify, as we cannot promise a time slot or day. We will announce when this program’s sign up opens.
