International Metabolic Conference
For Families & Individuals Impacted by Fatty Acid Oxidation Disorders
Detroit Country Day School
July 25-27, 2025

Welcome to the International Metabolic Conference for families and individuals impacted by Fatty Acid Oxidation Disorders, a premier event dedicated to advancing the knowledge and collaboration for patients, clinicians, and researchers. In partnership with Dr. Jerry Vockley and INFORM, MitoAction will assemble leading experts to present to patients, families, caregivers, and clinicians. The focus of the conference is for attendees to learn more about disease management, current clinical trials, nutrition, and the social needs of caring for those with a rare metabolic disorder. This is a great opportunity for patients, families, and clinicians to meet one another in person, spend time networking, and have the opportunity to interact with professionals who specialize in metabolic disorders.
We will hear from a variety of speakers including medical professionals, dietitians, social workers, advocates and genetic counselors. We encourage patients, families, and practicing/clinicians in training to come and enjoy a space where we can learn from each other!
Everyone in your entire family will have a meaningful way to connect, engage and learn! Click here to Register.
*Please note that there will be activities for children and teens offered in conjunction with scheduled conference sessions.
