【Part 1:Aim】
共同研究支援委員会は,国内における小児神経疾患の多施設共同研究を支援して,エビデンスレベルの高い研究を世界に発信することを目的とする委員会です.承認された研究課題の学会内の周知や協力の要請を機関誌「脳と発達」やホームページなどを通じて行うなどの支援を提供しています.また,平成22年からは学術集会で,進捗状況や成果などを発表していただいています.今回は,平成26年と27年に申請いただきました3課題に関する演題を発表していただきます.これらの研究の内容をより広く知っていただくことにより,参加・協力いただける先生が増え,より大きな研究組織となり,益々の研究の発展に貢献できることを期待しています.

【Part 2:Aim】
“Impact of using New Generation Sequence by Japanese Child Neurologists on the Academic World”
One of the most crucial progresses in modern medicine is the identification of new genetic abnormalities in diseases of unknown cause using new generation sequence (NGS), which has helped reveal both molecular and biological mechanisms in such diseases. This has been especially important in Child Neurology where many important findings have been discovered using NGS.
The ability of the clinician is important for efficiently using NGS and drawing conclusions from commonalities demonstrated by patients with similar and/or different symptoms. It is important for the clinician to accumulate patients with similar symptoms, which is crucial for obtaining successful results.
This seminar will focus on disorders of which the causative genes were detected by investigators from Japan Child Neurology Society (JCNS). The clinical experts will explain the disorders, the stories behind the discoveries, and how patients with similar symptoms very selected.
We hope that young JCNS members will participate in this seminar and will conduct new clinical and/or basic neurological studies in the near future.
