GLUT1 Deficiency Foundation
Collaborative Research Network
The GLUT1 Deficiency Foundation is proud to have the support of our Collaborative Research Network, an international initiative designed to connect, strengthen, and support the research community working to advance the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of GLUT1 Deficiency.
goals of the CRN:
The most important questions in our field can’t be answered alone.
The goal of the Collaborative Research Network (CRN) is to bring together scientists and clinicians - from any career stage - who share a commitment to collaboration and want to be part of a community focused on bringing help and hope to patients and families living with the many challenges of this disease.
The GLUT1 Deficiency Collaborative Research Network complements the G1DF's Collaborative Care Network and Research Compass to help accelerate our vision of a brighter future where GLUT1 Deficiency will be easy to diagnose early, treat effectively, and one day cure completely.
current members:
Network members are helping shape the future of GLUT1 Deficiency research and model the collaboration that is necessary to move progress forward in the most meaningful and impactful ways. Researchers are invited to join this growing network dedicated to making research stronger, faster, easier, and more meaningful - together.
