LAM Treatment Alliance Fast Tracking Treatment Research

LAM is a disease that kills women from all races, classes and countries -- primarily while in their child bearing years. It affects the lungs, kidneys, lymphatic system, and at times the brain. There is no known cure, but we are working hard to find one. Learn More About LAM

LAM/TSC Seminar Series Overview and Logistics:

The LAM/TSC Seminar Series, now in its third year, is a monthly multi-disciplinary meeting ground where approximately 35-85 researchers and clinicians gather to:

Pool knowledge among those working separately, thereby increasing the potential impact of present research on LAM/TSC;
Identify gaps in research that might impact future work on LAM/TSC;
Foster interdisciplinary collaboration at clinical and basic science levels within the research community in Boston, throughout the United States and internationally both through on-site and remote participation via webcasts of the sessions;
Recruit junior and senior leaders in fields relevant to LAM/TSC research to work on LAM and TSC;
Brainstorm and peer review novel therapeutic approaches to finding effective treatments for LAM and TSC

CME credit is available to physicians attending these meetings.

We are so grateful to our sponsors and partners: the Tuberous Sclerosis Alliance; Harvard Medical School Department of Continuing Medical Education; Harvard Medical School Department of Genetics; David Kwiatkowski; LTA volunteers and LAM patients in the Boston area.
