LAMposium Patient & Family Conference

LAMposium is a specialized conference where individuals with lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), and their supporters and loved ones, can learn, share experiences, and connect with others who live with LAM. LAM patients will also have a unique opportunity to meet leading-edge LAM scientists, learn about critical research study opportunities, and consult with the world’s most experienced LAM clinicians.

These two fully programmed days feature educational sessions that cover a broad range of interests for patients and families affected by LAM.
