Grant Activity:
Advancing congenital and childhood-onset muscle disease diagnosis and treatment - a cross-disciplinary Australian collaboration
Purpose:
Congenital and childhood-onset muscle disorders cause significant physical disability and early death. Limited genetic diagnosis rates and lack of effective drug treatments adversely impact patient care. We aim to (1) Increase diagnosis rates by identifying previously unrecognised disease-causing variants in new and known genes (2) Confirm the abnormal impacts of these variants within cells, tissues and animal models (3) Establish a drug development consortium to develop effective treatments.
