Uncovering the molecular mechanisms behind Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease [ 2016 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Brent Neumann (Principal investigator)

Brief description Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (or CMT) is one of the most common disorders of the nervous system, affecting the normal function of the limbs and causing lifelong disabilities. There is currently no cure for CMT. The aim of this research is to develop a new model of CMT, which will allow us to uncover novel information about how the disease develops. This research will provide a better understanding of the disease and therefore provide valuable insight for the future generation of therapeutics.
