For 18 years, Wake Up Narcolepsy has built relationships across every corner of the Narcolepsy and Idiopathic Hypersomnia (IH) community — patients, researchers, clinicians, and industry partners.
Bridging Perspectives brings them all into one room (and onto one screen) for a day of collaboration, innovation, and real talk about what’s next in Narcolepsy care.
Why Attend?
- Learn from leading experts: Hear evidence-based insights and emerging science from speakers including Dr. Emmanuel Mignot, Dr. Leslie Citrome, Dr. Anna Wani, Dr. Syed Kamal Naqvi, and more.
- Go deeper than standard clinical training: Narcolepsy is underrepresented in standard training. This event closes that gap with practical, clinically-relevant content.
- Hear directly from patients: Our agenda is shaped by real community voices at every level, not just clinical data.
- Attend your way: Join us in Dallas or tune in virtually, whatever fits your schedule and practice.
- Built on what you told us: We listened to feedback from our 2025 inaugural event and made real changes to make this year even better!
Who Should Attend?
- Medical students & residents: Get a head start on a condition that’s often underrepresented in standard curricula, and build clinical confidence before you need it
- Practicing physicians & sleep specialists: Sharpen your diagnostic and treatment approach with the latest evidence-based research and emerging science in Narcolepsy care
- Nurse practitioners, PAs & allied health professionals: Access practical, clinically-relevant insights you can bring directly into patient care
- Researchers & industry professionals: Connect with clinicians and community members shaping the future of treatment and innovation
- Anyone new to the field: No prior Narcolepsy expertise required — sessions are designed to meet you where you are
