Join the conference Quality of Life 4 OI, taking place from 22-25 November 2019 in Amsterdam!

The Conference organized by Foundation Care4BrittleBones together with OIFE, OIF, ERN-BOND and BBDC will provide a platform to engage on clinical practice and research aimed at increasing quality of life for people with OI. The conference discusses topics like surgery and rehabilitation, medical treatment options including stemcel treatment en gene therapy, diagnosis and psychosocial aspects like fatigue, pain and mental health. The conference takes a multidisciplinary approach and is focused on children as well as adults with OI. Key questions are:  How do we measure outcomes in people with OI and what should the standard of good clinical care be in these areas?
