2nd NALCN Channel & Related Diseases International Conference
The Channeling Hope Foundation is excited to host the 2nd International NALCN Channel & Related Diseases Conference (NALCN 2025) in San Antonio, Texas, USA, from October 10-12, 2025. The conference will bring together international scientists and clinicians to present and discuss ground-breaking research on the NALCN ion channel and related diseases, leaders to identify current research gaps, opportunities and priorities to develop the first therapies for these diseases, and families to build our community and start the first natural history study.

We will continue to update this website with important details including abstract submission and registration. 

We have a block of rooms under NALCN conference at Hilton San Antonio Hill Country hotel.

We want as many families, scientists and researchers to join as possible. Scholarships to attend the conference will be made available to anyone with a financial barrier to traveling. Please contact us at [email protected] if a conference scholarship will enable you to attend the conference!

We plan to offer Childcare Services to ensure parents and caregivers can participate in the conference.

If you are interested in volunteering on the committee to help plan the conference, please reach out to [email protected] - we’d love to have you join our conference committee.
