Kleefstra Syndrome Drug Development Research Fund

Organization information

K.I.D.S. IQ Project

Location: Toronto, Canada

Summary

K.I.D.S. IQ Project is raising money for scientific research projects aimed at advancing a drug treatment for Kleefstra syndrome (KS). KS is a rare genetic condition caused by a mutation of the EHMT1 gene. KS patients have intellectual disabilities, speech impairments and various other neurological/physical abnormalities. Scientists know enough today to test specific drug development approaches, however, funding is the biggest hurdle. Your donation will help put a drug treatment within reach.
