The 2026 TAND Mini-Symposium recording is now available!
The programme for the 2026 Mini-Symposium covered a range of topics including: TAND mechanisms, TAND measurement and ethical challenges in TSC care; the impact of TAND on family life and caregiver experiences, including sleep management difficulties, psychosocial aspects in Brazil, and the TSC and TAND landscape in India; and, potential TAND interventions, including medicinal cannabis, supporting caregiver wellbeing, regulating together, and a novel neuropsychological intervention. Approximately 70 people from at least 13 countries attended throughout the afternoon.
One participant remarked:
“Thank you all – the opportunity to join such informative sessions as today’s is truly appreciated, the presentations and work on developments in understanding of TSC are encouraging and so important for individuals and families like mine who have daily struggles with untangling the complex issues of TAND and how to best support our loved ones. Information for us is key to improved understanding, support and outcomes for those living with TSC and TAND. The work of the TAND consortium is invaluable.”
