4th International Meeting on Laminopathies 2023 (Madrid, 9-12 May)
Dear Friends,
We are pleased to announce the 4th International Meeting on Laminopathies, taking place in Madrid, Spain on May 9-12, 2023. The meeting will be open to researchers, physicians and patients from around the world with the main goal of synergistically exchange knowledge and ideas to better understand laminopathies and help develop new therapies. As in previous editions celebrated in Marseille, Bologna, and London, the meeting will include sessions focused on molecular mechanisms, clinical aspects, disease-modeling, as well as therapeutic strategies.
Although we have a preliminary agenda with exciting speakers, we are expecting more contributions from research and clinical groups as well as patient associations. The meeting will be an extraordinary opportunity to share your work on laminopathies in front of the best possible audience.
Please visit the meeting's website (https://www.laminopathy2023.com/) or send us an email ([email protected]) for more information. You can also check for updates by following our Twitter account (https://twitter.com/IMLaminopathies).
Registration and abstract submission will open in January 2023. We encourage you to save the date and consider contributing to the meeting.
Thank you for helping us spread the word about the 4th International Meeting on Laminopathies. We look forward to seeing you in Madrid.
Best regards,

Natural course and comorbidities of lipodystrophy syndromes in Spain
Lipodystrophy syndromes constitute a heterogeneous group of rare diseases characterised by the selective loss of adipose tissue, which leads to impaired insulin signalling and other cellular functions, giving rise to metabolic complications that contribute to higher mortality rates in these patients. However, the exact natural history of these syndromes is not well documented, leading to long delays in diagnosis or misdiagnosis. This thesis constitutes the first real-life study with the objetive of evaluating the natural course and associated comorbidities througout the lives of patients with generalised and partial lipodystrophy (both acquired and congenital) in Spain in an effort to contribute to increasing knowledge of these rare syndromes.
