Thank you to our global desmoid tumor community of patients, caregivers, researchers, and medical professionals who traveled to Houston and participated in the DTRF Together We Will Weekend. It was wonderful to connect with everyone in person in a brand new city! We are grateful to our platinum event sponsor, SpringWorks Therapeutics, for making the Weekend possible.
Together we advanced research, connected with each other, empowered ourselves, and fundraised for a cure, while celebrating our community and Desmoid Tumor Awareness Month!
- September 20, 2024 – DTRF International Desmoid Tumor Research Workshop: Dedicated clinicians and researchers from around the world attended the Int’l Desmoid Tumor Research Workshop, presenting the latest desmoid tumor science and research advances. We’re honored to host this essential collaborative meeting each year, which helps steer the direction of desmoid tumor research and the Foundation’s funding priorities. Learn more about the annual DTRF International Desmoid Tumor Research Workshop.
- September 21, 2024 – DTRF Patient Meeting: At the heart of our annual Weekend, patients, caregivers, clinicians, and researchers gathered to connect, collaborate and learn. Presentations on research, treatments, and a special presentation on the patient experience. Recordings of these educational events (including live Q&A) are available on our Patient Meeting Presentations page.
- September 22, 2024 – 2024 RFA Walk: Our community gathered together in person at the Houston Zoo and fundraised virtually around the world. Together, more than $55,000 was raised for desmoid tumor research!
The work continues to find better treatments and, one day, a cure for each and every desmoid tumor patient. Once again, on behalf of the DTRF team, THANK YOU!
