Houston Methodist J.C. Walter Jr. Conference Series

Presented by: Bradley Z. Naifeh Amyloidosis Clinical Research and Treatment Program at Houston Methodist J.C. Walter Jr. Transplant Center

Amyloidosis is an underrecognized condition because it has historically been misconceived to be a rare disease and presents in a myriad of clinical situations in a subtle manner. Recent advances in therapeutics have made it imperative that this condition is recognized and categorized appropriately in a timely manner so that individuals can get access to appropriate care. Due to a systemic nature of amyloid, various subspecialities are on the fore front of battling this disease. The goal of the Conference is to create a faculty panel from various disciplines to engage in the mission to promote awareness and educate attendees on Amyloidosis in a comprehensive manner.
