Feedback from 2015 and 2017 conference delegates
“It was very well organised and timed. Great mix of researchers, clients and families.”
“The conference was very good, had very high quality speakers and posters, and gave rise to fruitful networking opportunities between MJD researchers.”
“There was a such a vast array of research presented and it was very interesting to hear about the varied cultural environments of patients with MJD.”
“I was particularly impressed to listen [to] the work patients, families and healthcare are doing together, and to have the opportunity to listen from families [on] what they expect from clinicians and researchers.”
“Learning about the work that has been developed in Australia with MJD communities was an incredible opportunity to think about ways of improving patient care in our home country (and all around the world) - the Staying Strong Toolbox is certainly a high point in the Conference.”
“There are way too few meetings dedicated for MJD research. It is very important to meet and exchange with other researchers and to stay in constant contact.”
“The conference was great - extremely motivating and inspiring.”
