Cyndi Frank, President of the Gaucher Community Alliance, attended the GBA1 conference in Phoenix, AZ this past week. The GBA1 conference is designed for patents, health professionals and stakeholders from both academia and industry who are involved in or specialize in GBA1 research and the connection between Gaucher disease and Parkinson’s disease. Topics covered all aspects of GBA1, ranging from basic science to clinical trials, and provided a unique platform to collaboratively advance the understanding and treatment of GBA1-associated neuro-degenerative diseases.
