Rett Syndrome Research Programs
Our commitment to finding treatments and a cure for Rett syndrome compels us to advance cutting edge research. Through our research programs we fund basic, translational and neuro-habilitation research grants throughout the world. We fund post-doctoral researchers, host science symposia to allow for discussions and networking of the world's Rett experts. We fund compound development directly through financial support of high throughput screening systems as well as financially supporting clinical trials. We work to expand access to high quality treatments and care in our support of the Natural History Study, and by sponsoring a national learning collaborative geared toward definition and spread of evidence-based care of patients with Rett syndrome.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2022 – Dec 31, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$3.7MFamily Empowerment Education

We advocate to federal officials, keeping Rett syndrome on the list of funding priorities. We work with industry in the design of clinical trials, ensuring the clinical trial environment is family centered.
