It is a huge step forward for FraXI, to have published proceedings. We are very grateful to Prof Gaia Scerif who made this possible through a grant from her University (Oxford).

“The aim of this Congress was to bring together clinicians and researchers working in the area of Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) and Fragile X Premutation Associated Conditions (FXPAC) from around the world, giving them the opportunity to network, be informed of the latest research from colleagues, workshop ideas through panel discussions, discuss translational research with clinical applications, and form relationships of future collaboration.

The speakers’ presentations covered various FMR1 premutation issues, biomarkers, behavioural aspects, treatment of FXS, mosaicism, models of care and expert centres in various countries, and more. A recently published paper, ‘A Holistic Approach to Fragile X Syndrome’, was presented and provides the reader with an overview of the scope of the Congress. Prof Scerif’s contribution was supported by ESRC UKRI grant ES/X013561/1.”
