Retina UK are collaborating with Usher Kids UK and CureUsher to deliver a two part webinar mini series about Usher syndrome.
The first instalment will see us joined by a panel of sector experts, including Mr Rob Henderson (Moorfields Eye and Great Ormond Street Hospitals), Chloe Joyner (UsherKids UK), Kate Arkell (Retina UK) and Joanne Milne (CureUsher). We will be covering key questions and topic areas including what Usher syndrome is, how to get a diagnosis, both clinical and genetic, and what will happen after this, the importance of regular testing, how to interpret the genetic data and who can help you understand this and how you can connect with other support services.
The second instalment of the webinar series will be held on Wednesday 22 June at 7.00pm – more details to follow.
