The Canavan Research Foundation

New Fairfield, Connecticut

Cause Description:
Our mission is to found and support research to cure Canavan Disease and other genetic brain diseases. We spearheaded the world's first trial of gene therapy in the brain in 1996 and demonstrated the first ever regrowth of myelin in a deteriorating disease. We are currently pursuing two really exciting research studies which have both shown the ability to cure the disease in mice, one involving stem cells and the other enzyme replacement. Your donation will, undoubtedly, make history.
