Moebius syndrome is a congenital (present at birth) condition that causes facial paralysis due to the underdevelopment or absence of the 6th and 7th cranial nerves, and limited eye movement. Depending on the individual, other symptoms may occur alongside Moebius, like hearing loss, limb differences (hand, foot, or other limb anomalies), developmental delays, speech and feeding difficulties, autism, dental concerns and sleep disorders. Moebius syndrome is extremely rare - it occurs approximately 2 - 20 times per one million live births, and there is no cure, and no known cause.

We are pleased to invite you to the upcoming CME-accredited session on Moebius syndrome, hosted by the Moebius Syndrome Foundation and the Department of Pediatrics Genetics at the University of Utah. This session will be presented by Dr. Bryn Webb from the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison on Wednesday, July 23, 2025, from 2:00 to 4:00 PM (MT). It will be held in person at Primary Children's Hospital – Eccles Outpatient Building, Lone Peak Conference Room, or virtually. Please feel free to share this information with other providers you think may be interested in attending.
