29-30 September 2022
Bergen, Norway

In 2021 an international consortium on Rubinstein-Taybi Syndrome (RTS) started to write a best practice clinical guideline supported by the ERN-ITHACA.

The group had their first online meeting in January 2021 and the guideline is nearing its completion.

Through an event organised by ER-ITHACA and the local support of Haukeland University, the RTS consortium is going to meet face-to-face in order to discuss the guideline recommendations and to strengthen the collaboration around the syndrome.

The meeting will be restricted to members of the RTS consortium, but if you are a patient representative with special interest in RTS, please feel free to contact us to express your interest on the meeting.
