We’re hosting a conference to bring together people from all corners of the rare disease world, researchers, clinicians, regulators, and everyone in between, to chat about new research opportunities for the CURE GABA-A community.

Our goal is to map out the next steps for designing translational treatments for GABAAR treatments. We’re expecting a great mix of GABAAR caregivers, researchers, and others who are involved in rare diseases and are curious about the latest science and regulatory updates that could help with developing GABAAR therapies.

Networking & Blood Collection

CURE GABA-A caregivers and patients are invited to connect with other families and contribute to research by donating blood and biosamples to the CURE GABA-A Biorepository, housed within the COMBINEDBrain network.
