In Rockville, MD on June 3-4th many of the researchers looking into different areas and avenues for Niemann-Pick Type C came together to discuss promising therapies. Although research is making progress, parents of NPC patients never feel that research is happening fast enough. That is greatly to be expected. The NPC community is  making large strides in the right direction!

The National Niemann Pick Disease Foundation was very kind in putting together a recap of that meeting in a pdf format which is viewable here: Promising Therapies for Niemann-Pick Type C Disease.
