SUMMARY:Considerations for effective integration of gender and sex in research and clinical trials
DESCRIPTION:In this session\, Dr. Natalie Rosen will explore best practice guidelines for researchers to build more equitable\, reflective\, and inclusive research and clinical trials with respect to gender and sex. Dr. Rosen will touch briefly on a variety of topics including\, participant eligibility\, recruitment\, sampling plans and data analysis\, measurement of genders and sexes\, responsiveness across time\, and working with validated scales. The objective is to stimulate critical thought about effective integration of sex and gender in research and clinical trials and to offer some key resources for continued learning.

SUMMARY:6th Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) Drug Development Forum
DESCRIPTION:The Drug Development Forum (DDF) brings together biotech and pharmaceutical companies\, academic researchers and clinician scientists to collaborate and advance Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) research. It’s an opportunity to discuss emerging FOP data and highlight gaps in our understanding of FOP disease pathogenesis that could offer new therapeutic options. The June 2024 event offers both in-person and virtual attendance options. Due to the content being shared\, only FOP family members who are invited to speak or are members of the International Presidents’ Council or IFOPA’s Research Committee may register. \nWith the first-ever treatment for FOP approved in select countries and five active FOP clinical trials\, there is still an abundance of preclinical research with the potential to be translated into safe and effective new medicines. Molecules advancing drug discovery\, advanced therapeutic modalities and new technologies must continually be explored for their potential to treat understudied signs and symptoms of FOP.

SUMMARY:Perinatal and Child Health Research Annual Meetings
DESCRIPTION:The realm of perinatal child health research is undergoing a rapid transformation. To enhance the well-being of our children and families\, it is imperative to foster collaborative research endeavors\, facilitate data sharing\, provide training\, and encourage networking among researchers and institutions. Consequently\, nine networks have united their annual meetings to facilitate connections and eliminate obstacles to top-tier health research and training. Our objective is to unite the Canadian perinatal and child health research community in a singular location—a historic first—where innovative ideas can flourish and a collaborative environment can be established.
