ISCBH Webinars

A SERIES OF THREE ISCBH WEBINARS FOR 2025

This new series will cover the following topics:

Achondroplasia & Hypochondroplasia

Hypophosphatasia

Osteogenesis Imperfecta

For each of our webinars, we are excited to be addressing some of the issues that we all need answers to – What about the unmet needs of patients? What if there was no limit to funding?  Where have we been and where are we going?   

We’ll be looking into each topic with a futuristic lens… and welcoming plenty of engagement between our moderators and audience!  Together we can work to channel our future efforts to address those unmet needs.

The webinars will last one hour, starting with a 25 minute talk by our guest speaker, followed by a 35 minute Q&A and discussion session chaired by Professor Leanne Ward and Professor Erik Imel.
