Hereditary Cerebellar Ataxias: Next-Generation Biomarker Discovery on a Global Scale
Description: Hereditary cerebellar ataxias (HCAs) are rare, fatal genetic disorders that severely impact day-to-day function and currently have no cure. The relative rarity of HCAs makes it challenging to understanding how different patterns of brain changes and symptoms may affect different people. This research will take a global approach to understanding HCAs using magnetic resonance imaging, web-based clinical assessments, and testing of new measurement approaches.
