thanks to María José for leading
me to the site of the upcoming
XVII World Congress of Neurology, to be held in London, 17-22 June
The conference webpage is
http://www.concorde-uk.com/wcn-2001/

There are a couple presentations on dysferlin in particular:

36.03 Dysferlinopathy: Evolution of Muscle Involvement by CT Scan
M. Vlak , C. Angelini

LB007 Clinical and Genetic Studies of Two Japanese Families with
Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy 2B and Miyoshi Myopathy
H. Ueyama , T. Kumamoto, H. Horinouchi, S. Fujimoto, T. Tsuda

as well as some on muscular dystrophy in general. The abstracts are
not (yet) available on the web pages. The site says they will be on
the opening day of the conference; I'm not sure whether this means to
the public or only to registered attendees.
