2 FROM THE ORGANIZERS On behalf of the Symposium Organizing Commi ee, the Urea Cycle Disorders Consor um (UCDC), the European Registry and Network for Intoxica on Type Metabolic Diseases (E IMD), and the Na onal Urea Cycle Disorders Founda on (NUCDF), we invite you to par cipate in the 4 th Interna onal Symposium on Urea Cycle Disorders to be held 1 2 September 2013 as a satellite mee ng of the 12 th Interna onal Congress of Inborn Errors of Metabolism in Barcelona, Spain. We are excited to be hos ng this forth satellite mee ng of its kind. The first interna onal satellite on urea cycle disorders was held in Vienna, Austria in 1997, the second in Brisbane, Australia in 2003, and the third in LaJolla (San Diego), U.S.A. in 2009 a rac ng more than 200 par cipants from around the world. We are planning for even greater par cipa on in The proceedings of these mee ngs formed a founda on for improved understanding of urea cycle disorders, as well as a basis for advancing research. Our vision for this fourth satellite symposium is to con nue the tradi on, having it serve as a catalyst for innova ve collabora ons and to provide s mula on for focused research over the coming years leading to new therapeu c approaches. Trainees are welcome and encouraged to a end the symposium to expand their network of UCD experts, to supplement their training, and to share their work with the UCD community. The symposium will open with a welcome recep on on the evening of Sunday, 1 September giving par cipants me to review posters submi ed by trainees, catch up with old friends and colleagues, and establish new rela onships. We have an outstanding scien fic program planned for Monday, 2 September to spotlight the most recent research findings in basic, transla onal and therapeu c inves ga ons for urea cycle disorders. The day will be divided into four sessions: 1) pathophysiological insights sugges ng novel therapeu c approaches, 2) early detec on and new treatment principles, 3) natural history studies around the world with focus on differences, and 4) clinical themes and pa ent outcomes. Posters will be presented during the lunch break, giving trainees another opportunity to share with each other and with senior inves gators and to receive feedback. The proceedings will be published. We are delighted to be hos ng the symposium in Barcelona and at La Caixa Forum. We hope that you will par cipate in this interna onal effort to catalyze new therapeu c approaches for urea cycle disorder and to further research to save and improve the lives of affected children and adults who look to us for hope for the future. We look forward to seeing you in Barcelona. Marshall Summar, M.D. (UCDC) and Stefan Kölker, M.D. (E IMD) Symposium Co Chairs

9 ABOUT THE ORGANIZERS The 4 th Interna onal Symposium on Urea Cycle Disorders is organized jointly by the UCDC, E IMD and NUCDF The Urea Cycle Disorders Consor um (UCDC) was founded in 2003 as one of the original consor a of the NIHfunded Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network. The UCDC works to improve the lives of individuals and families affected by urea cycle disorders through research and educa on. The UCDC conducts a natural history, longitudinal study to develop a be er understanding of UCD treatments and a deeper scien fic understanding UCDs and UCD outcomes, including how UCDs cause brain damage and how to develop protec on against this. The UCDC also conducts neuroimaging studies and clinical trials of promising new drugs for the treatment of UCD. The Consor um constructs and maintains resources with significant informa on for clinicians, researchers, and pa ents and trains physicians to become experts in providing care for and trea ng those with UCD. The European Registry and Network for Intoxica on Type Metabolic Disorders (E IMD) receives funding from the European Union in the framework of the Health Programme. Its aim is to promote health for individuals affected with an organic aciduria (OAD) or with a urea cycle defect (UCD). The network has two major ac vi es. The first is to establish a European pa ent registry and the second is to provide European evidence based consensus care protocols. The Na onal Urea Cycle Disorders Founda on (NUCDF) is a nonprofit organiza on dedicated to the iden fica on, treatment and cure of urea cycle disorders. Commi ed to saving children and adults from the catastrophic effects of UCDs, NUCDF is a lifeline to families and medical professionals all over the world seeking crisis interven on, support and treatment informa on. The Founda on provides informa on to affected pa ents and families, promotes educa on for healthcare professionals on the iden fica on, diagnosis and treatment of the disorder, s mulates and supports cri cal research, increases public awareness and educates legislators on the needs of UCD pa ents and families. NUCDF is dedicated to the development and support of mul disciplinary medical and clinical professionals, advocates, policymakers, industry and consumers working together to improve outcomes for persons affected with urea cycle disorders. ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS The Interna onal Congress on Inborn Errors of Metabolism (ICIEM) is held every three years and is designed to bring the best scien sts and physicians dedicated to inborn errors from around the world together to discuss advances in the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of this family of condi ons. The sponsoring society s board of directors is made up of the heads of the various na onal and interna onal organiza ons dedicated to inborn errors and the sites for the mee ng rotate around the globe to maximize the opportuni es for more junior colleagues to a end. This year s mee ng is sponsored by the Society for the Study of Inborn Errors of Metabolism.
