The NF2/Schwannomatosis State of the Art 2023 Conference is the premier biennial gathering of the Schwannomatosis professional community. The meeting provides a forum to bring together biologists, geneticists, clinicians, oncologists, neurosurgeons, audiologists and others familiar with NF2-related and other schwannomatosis to share their latest basic and clinical research findings and experiences. The ultimate goal of these meetings is to facilitate collaboration between international translational research scientists and clinicians.
