Abstract

Down syndrome (DS) or trisomy 21 (T21) is present in a significant number of children and adults around the world and is associated with cognitive and medical challenges. Through research, the T21 Research Society (T21RS), established in 2014, unites a worldwide community dedicated to understanding the impact of T21 on biological systems and improving the quality of life of people with DS across the lifespan. T21RS hosts an international conference every two years to support collaboration, dissemination, and information sharing for this goal. In 2022, T21RS hosted an international conference in Long Beach, California, from June 9 to 12. The conference, attended by 483 people including scientists, families, self-advocates, and industry representatives from 17 countries, was a dynamic and interactive meeting that shared discoveries from international research teams. This summary highlights the scientific discoveries shared at the 4th T21RS meeting with the Imagine, Discover, Inspire theme.
