Funding Period: February 1, 2023 - January 31, 2024
Summary:
ZC4H2 Associated Rare Disorders (ZARD) is a rare genetic disorder that impacts the nervous system. It is caused by mutations within the ZC4H2 gene. ZC4H2 codes for a protein that, as of yet, has not been studied and is of unknown function. In this project, we aim to investigate this function using a combination of cellular and molecular approaches to guide future therapeutic development.
