SUMMARY:Rare Diseases Workshop
DESCRIPTION:\nConcept Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) constitute a het
 erogeneous group of retinal diseases that cause the progressive loss of vi
 sion. Genetics of IRDs is very complex making difficult to find the specif
 ic mutation\, as well as the correct treatment for most of these diseases.
  Several therapeutic approaches have been developed in order to stop (e.g.
  gene therapy)\, slow down (e.g. neuroprotection) retinal degeneration or 
 restore visual function (e.g. artificial devices). The advance of knowledg
 e of IRDs includes implementing diagnostic/diagnosis tools\, searching for
  new effective therapies\, transferring basic research to clinical practic
 e\, and raising public awareness of IRDs existence. These objectives requi
 re the joint and coordinated work of basic researchers\, ophthalmologist\,
  neurophysiologists\, social workers\, patient associations and public adm
 inistrations.\n\n\n\nAim The workshop will give an update on basic and tra
 nslational research related to new therapeutic approaches for IRDs. It wil
 l bring together European experts and trainees to improve the training of 
 young researchers on IRDs and latest therapies. Participants and speakers 
 will involve representatives from ERN-EYE partners and non-ERN-EYE partner
 s. The workshop will be perfomed in English and delivered by basic researc
 hers\, ophthalmologist\, patients.  It will facilitate collaborations and
  exchange of ideas between attendees.\n
