‘Regression’ in people with Down’s syndrome
Online conference

Tuesday 28 March 2023 | 12 noon (GMT) – approximately 4pm | FREE

The DSA and Cambridge Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Research Group (CIDDRG) at the University of Cambridge welcomes people with Down’s syndrome, families, advocates, health or social care practitioners, and researchers to the Research into ‘Regression’ in people with Down’s syndrome Online Conference.

Many families over the years have contacted the DSA as their son or daughter with Down’s syndrome has experienced a period of unexplained loss of skills and/or changes in their behaviour. This is often referred to as ‘regression’.

This online, interactive, Conference aims to:

• Summarise our current understanding of regression and the current research available in this area
• Provide opportunities for interactions with leading researchers in this field
• Provide a space for people with Down’s syndrome and those who care for them to talk about their experiences and hear from others.

There will be three speakers at the event:

Dr Shahid Zaman
Dr Jonathan Santoro
Third speaker – To be announced

During the Conference, there will be time for questions.

The link to join the virtual conference will be sent to those who have registered for the event 2 days before the event.

Further information to be released soon!
