This conference on Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease (CJD) and other prion disease is for CJD family members, people at increased risk of developing CJD and health care professionals involved in patient care or infection prevention and control.

Please join us for a day of bonding, awareness and knowledge!

For CJD family members this is an opportunity to meet other families, share your stories, ask questions of the experts and gain knowledge so that you can promote awareness in the community and amongst local health care professionals. You will also gain insight into what research is happening in Australia and overseas and how we can work together to fundraise and support our research teams.

For health care professionals this is an opportunity to learn more about CJD and prion disease or help by sharing your knowledge and experience. We need champions who help promote awareness and knowledge and those of you who attend are our champions.

We also invite genetic family members or any families wanting more information on genetic testing to register for the genetic meeting on Friday 11th November 2016.

This conference is free for individuals or family members personally affected by CJD or other prion diseases.
