Rett Gazette
Our Rett Gazette is NOW available as a downloadable PDF!
In it, you’ll find how we’re confronting COVID-19 challenges head on! You’ll be introduced to our Rett Research Ready program that provides an important new search tool—My Rett Trial Finder—as well as educational materials and support. Our Chief Science Officer Dr. Dominique Picard shares an update on gene modifying therapy research. As always, we want you to be informed about the critical research that’s aimed at improving the lives of those with Rett as we reach toward finding a cure.
We’ve also included our 2019 Impact Report so that you can see how donations are used to empower families and accelerate full spectrum research.
