The 20th Annual WORLDSymposium is taking place in Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego, San Diego, CA, USA from 4 to 9 February 2024. The notable annual scientific meeting, which focuses on lysosomal diseases, presents the latest advances in basic science, translational research, and clinical trials. 

Last year’s edition of the WORLDSymposium was the largest international scientific meeting dedicated specifically to advancing lysosomal disease research. The meeting has grown to an international forum that attracted over 2000 participants from more than 50 countries in 2023. This year, the WORLDSymposium 2024 will host 96 live (oral) presentations and over 450 poster presentations from around the world.

The preliminary program for WORLDSymposium will be available by the end of November 2023, and the registration deadline is set for 5 January 2023. Click here to register.
