Amicus Therapeutics’ Executive Chairman and founding Chief Executive Officer, John F. Crowley, has based his every decision on his mission to save the lives of his two children who live with the severe neuromuscular disorder Pompe disease. He has worked tirelessly as a parent, patient advocate, and entrepreneur to bring hope to people living with rare diseases, their caregivers, and their families worldwide. It was in his drive to find a treatment that Amicus Therapeutics was launched in 2005, to reimagine the future of rare diseases, and continue his mission.
In accordance with Amicus’ founding principles and John’s quest, we are excited to invite healthcare professionals who have undertaken research in Pompe disease to partake in our Young Investigator Excellence in Research Programme.
This programme, sponsored by Amicus Therapeutics, aims to recognize the latest research in Pompe disease, while facilitating the sharing of insights and information in the wider scientific community. We encourage healthcare professionals, scientists, and allied healthcare professionals to submit an abstract of their independent research, which is sufficiently complete to be shared. Together with Amicus, a panel of international experts in Pompe disease will extend the opportunity to successful applicants to present their research during a dedicated live, peer-to-peer meeting in April 2023
(travel and accommodation will be provided). Successful applicants will also be announced via the Amicus website and social media, and receive a certificate confirming their involvement in the Young Investigator Excellence in Research Programme.
Following the presentations and award ceremony, attendees will be invited to attend a networking dinner, and will also have the opportunity to attend a dedicated Pompe disease medical education event the following day. The applicant whose submission is judged to be the strongest and most impactful by the expert panel will be invited to present their research at an Amicus educational event in the subsequent year.
If you are interested in submitting your research to the Young Investigator Excellence in Research Programme, please send your abstract to Amicus via Questo indirizzo email è protetto dagli spambots. È necessario abilitare JavaScript per vederlo. before the deadline 6th January 2023. The submitted abstract will be shared with our panel of international experts and successful applicants will be notified by February 2023. Further information including eligibility criteria is available below.
Please note that the abstract submission process will be managed by our partner agency Comradis, who will be responsible for communicating whether applicants have been successful, on behalf of Amicus Therapeutics.
