LATAM Roundtable
If you are exploring how to set up an amyloidosis center in Latin America, you might be interested in attending our roundtable meeting.
Thursday, 4 June 2026
16:00–18:00 Brazil (BRT) / Argentina (ART)
13:00–15:00 Mexico City (CST)
19:00–21:00 UTC
Our independent medical education program is designed to support multidisciplinary teams in establishing and strengthening specialist amyloidosis services, with region-specific insights to reflect real-world challenges and support implementation.
Early and accurate diagnosis, followed by timely initiation of treatment, is essential for improving outcomes in patients with amyloidosis. However, in Latin America, patients often experience significant diagnostic delays, complicated by the limited number of specialized centers equipped to offer coordinated, multidisciplinary care.
To address these urgent challenges, we are running a virtual roundtable meeting to discuss how to overcome challenges in establishing and operating amyloidosis services in the LATAM region.
We will be joined by three amyloidosis experts who have been instrumental in setting up successful amyloidosis services in their respective countries, Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico.
