Cure GPX4 Research Conference
- This event has passed.
Overview
We are excited to invite you to the Cure GPX4 Research Conference on March19th. This one day conference is aimed at bringing a diverse group of researchers, clinicians and industry partners who are working on finding a cure for the disease caused by mutations in GPX4. The goal of the conference is to share updates from different areas of GPX4 research, discuss planned activities and facilitate dynamic exchange of ideas to build a cure.
Goal
Goal is to create a complete roadmap for therapy development by the end of the day. The roadmap will include identifying experiments necessary to understand disease, identifying small molecule drugs, and exploring the use of emerging technologies like gene therapy, ASOs etc to treat this condition. To accomplish this goal, we will have workshop-style free form discussions spread across three sessions.
Each session starts with a 10min “context” talk to get participants up-to-speed with the science underlying GPX4 with regard to its role in health and disease. This can provide the necessary background to all attendees to successfully participate and brainstorm. This will be followed by a ~40min brainstorming session. With the emphasis on informal freeform discussions, brainstorming sessions is where we expect everyone to contribute their expertise to help shape the roadmap.
The agenda, brainstorming session structure, and other activities are tailored to run a very collaborative online meeting respecting constraints such as multiple time zones, technology issues etc. We have dedicated time for tech-checks, ample breaks, dedicated note taking person, and a dedicated tech support person to ensure participants can focus on discussions.

Session Structure
-
Explain the objective (5mins)
-
Context Talk (10mins + 5mins Q&A) to orient participants by covering enough topics necessary for brainstorming
-
Brainstorm (40min)
-
Moderators will explain the objective of the session and start discussion with the first open ended question.
-
Discussions are freeform like a small “team meeting”. Moderators’ role is to guide discussion to meet the objective.
-
Participants can ask questions on chat or audio.
-
If new information is identified or a decision made, add it to “Roadmap Chart”
