From Mechanisms to Medicine: Rethinking the Discovery-to-Care Continuum in Multi-System Disorders

This workshop brings together leading researchers, clinicians, and people with lived experience (PWLEs) to advance our collective understanding of complex multi-system disorders. Discussions will span a range of interconnected themes, including chronic overlapping pain conditions, infection-associated conditions, neuroimmune dysfunction, sex differences in disease presentation, genetic contributions, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction. Attendees will examine conditions that exemplify the complexity and convergence of these disorders, fostering dialogue that bridges scientific insight and patient experience.
