AMRA @ the 17th SCWD
Shifting the Perspective:
Highlighting Changes in Muscle Composition to Inform Metabolic Treatment Development
On December 6-8th, AMRA Medical is excited to contribute to the vibrant discussions at the 17th Annual International Conference on Sarcopenia, Cachexia, and Wasting Disorders (SCWD 2024) in Washington, DC!
