Senator Paul D. Wellstone Muscular Dystrophy Specialized Research Centers (MDSRC)
Funds specialised centers running basic, translational and clinical muscular dystrophy research together, with patients built into the design.
Muscular dystrophy research spans lab bench to clinic, and progress usually needs both moving together rather than sitting in separate grants. This renewal keeps a legislatively-mandated Centers of Excellence programme running to do exactly that.
Each Center advances basic, translational and clinical muscular dystrophy research through interdisciplinary collaboration and shared resources, support…
Specialised, legislatively-mandated Centers of Excellence running basic, translational and clinical muscular dystrophy research through interdisciplinary collaboration and shared resources, providing training environments for emerging scientists and engaging patient and advocacy communities in study design.
