Press Release – Announcing 2020 Migraine World Summit Onstage

THE 7th MIGRAINE WORLD SUMMIT

***Press Release Coming Soon (end of Feb)***

About Migraine

Migraine is a debilitating and painful neurological disease that is under-recognized, undertreated and frequently misunderstood as “just a headache.” Despite 1 in 7 people living with this incapacitating condition worldwide,^[i] finding access to qualified healthcare professionals can be difficult. In addition, because migraine is so often misunderstood, there is stigma associated with publicly admitting to having the disease, especially in professional settings where it can be perceived to compromise work performance.

About Migraine World Summit

The mission of the Migraine World Summit is to reduce the global burden of migraine through education and fundraising. Each year, patient advocates Carl Cincinnato and Paula K. Dumas interview over 30 leading migraine experts, doctors and specialists from around the world to provide free, unprecedented access to the latest science in migraine and answer the most difficult questions for patients in desperate need of relief. To date, more than 500,000 people have participated in the Migraine World Summit to discover how to better manage the disease.

In 2022, patients will hear from renowned experts at organizations such as Stanford, Georgetown and Harvard Universities covering topics including the benefits of mediation on brain elasticity, pediatric indicators of migraine and the potential for genetic testing on migraine.

Proceeds help benefit migraine research and support through organizations like American Migraine Foundation, Migraine Research Foundation, Migraine & Headache Australia and the National Headache Foundation.

Participation in the 9-day Migraine World Summit is free and online from March 16-24, 2022, and available to order thereafter. To register, go to MigraineWorldSummit.com.
