Find Your Community at the MGFA National Patient Conference
Renaissance Phoenix Downtown Hotel
Phoenix, Arizona
March 23 – 25, 2025
This annual event brings together all members of the myasthenia gravis community, including individuals living with MG, care partners, family members, and leading MG experts.
The 2025 conference will feature a wide range of sessions on MG research, treatment updates, and discussions designed to help you and your family better manage your MG journey. It’s a wonderful opportunity to learn about the latest in MG treatments and discoveries while connecting with others in the community.
This year, we are excited to introduce several new elements, including interactive workshops, expanded Q&A sessions with top MG researchers and clinicians, and dedicated networking opportunities for attendees to connect with one another and share their experiences.
There is no cost for patients and care partners/family members to attend, thanks to generous support from our partners. However, we kindly ask that you only register if you plan to attend in person, to ensure the most effective use of our resources.
More information about virtual conference options will be available before the end of the year.
