Joshua Frase Foundation
Education Teleconference Series

During September and October 2006 the Joshua Frase Foundation hosted its first ever educational teleconferences, believed to be the first free, open-access conferences ever held on Centronuclear and Myotubular Myopathy. Although designed primarily for families affected by MTM / CNM they were also open to physicians, researchers, health care professionals and others who wanted to learn more about the disease.
