Highlights
The group continues the studies on the pathogene- sis of Allan-Herndon-Dudley Syndrome due to MCT8 mutations. In January Morte, Guadaño-Ferraz, and Bernal, attended a meeting supported by the Sher- man Family, from Australia, that took place in Marina del Rey, California, together with groups investigat- ing this disease, and parents of patients, to discuss recent advances in the study of the syndrome.
Dr. Bernal was invited to the European Endocrine Congress in Dublin, and to the International Thy- roid Meeting in Orlando. Dr. Bernal was nomitated by the Spanish Society of Endocrinlogy as a candi- date for the European Endocrine Societies medal. Dr. Guadaño was invited to the Prometeo-General- itat Valenciana workshop on nuclear receptors, or- ganized by Miguel Hernández University, Elche. Dr. Morte co-organized with Dr. Resmini (U747) an In- ternational Symposium of the Areces Foundation (Rare Endocrine Diseases: from Resarch to Clinical Management), with the participation of Dr. Bernal as

speaker. Dr. Morte was on sabbatical at the Maine Medical Center Research Institute, Maine, USA, from June through December, 2015. Data on CGH arrays, performed as a collaboration between Dr. Morte and Dr. Moreno (INGEM, La Paz), and supported by a prize from the Madrid Endocrine Society, were pre- sented in the annual meeting of the Society. Dr. Dan- iela Lopez Espindola presented her Doctoral Thesis on the Pathology of the brain in MCT8 patients.
The group continues to provide diganosis of RTH and MCT8 mutations, and the collaboration with Drs. Heuer (Germany) and Appelbaum (Israel) in the frame of an E-Rare-2 project. Drs. Bernal and Gua- daño as IP have been awarded a new project from the Plan Nacional (SAF2014-54919-R: Mecanis- mos de enfermedad en el síndrome de Allan-Hern- don-Dudley).
