On Tuesday, October 16 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time/11:00 AM Pacific Time, the National Down Syndrome Society (NDSS) and the Down Syndrome Research and Treatment Foundation (DSRTF) will cohost a webinar to provide an update on Down Syndrome Research with Dr. Roger Reevesof Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.  
Both NDSS and DSRTF regularly provide free educational webinars to the Down syndrome community.    In celebration of Down Syndrome Awareness Month our organizations are excited to collaborate on an update on the status of Down syndrome cognition research with Dr. Reeves.  
 DSRTF is proud to support the work of Dr. Reeves and his colleagues. Founded in 2004, DSRTF has become the leading non-governmental source of funding in the US for Down syndrome cognition research, contributing over $7 million so far to research toward improving learning, memory, and speech for people with Down syndrome. That research, according to Dr. Reeves, is showing exciting results. With recent advances, he says, "the game has changed for people with Down syndrome."
Learn what that means for the future on Tuesday, October 16 when Dr. Reeves joins us for a webinar to discuss current topics in Down syndrome research and his own groundbreaking work.
Register now to attend and to submit questions in advance, to be answered as time permits.  Join us and find out why the future looks brighter than ever for people with Down syndrome.
