Best Practice in Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1)

Join us for a practical one-day course on Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1)

The programme blends expert-led teaching with interactive workshops, covering everything from diagnosis and genetics to surveillance, red flags, and specialist referrals.

You’ll gain up-to-date insights into managing key complications, including vision problems, neurofibromas, scoliosis, pain, and neurodivergence, alongside clear guidance on when to refer on. The day also explores national service provision and offers case-based workshops on clinical management, service setup, and transition planning.
