💝Your Gift Changes Lives
Every donation brings us closer to a breakthrough for children with LMBRD2. Your generosity funds critical research, supports families in crisis, and gives hope to our little warriors fighting this ultra-rare genetic condition. But here's what makes your gift truly powerful: You're not just donating money – you're giving hope to desperate parents, funding the scientist working late nights for answers, and potentially saving the life of a child who can't wait.
💙 Together, we're not just funding research – we're racing to save lives. These little warriors are counting on us.
Fruit fly modelling refers to the use of Drosophila melanogaster, commonly known as the fruit fly, as a model organism in genetic research. Despite their small size, fruit flies have played a massive role in understanding genetics and human diseases, making them one of the most widely used organisms in biomedical science.
Functional assays are laboratory experiments designed to study the biological function of a gene, protein, or molecular pathway. In the context of genetic diseases, such as those involving mutations in the LMBRD2 gene, these assays are essential for understanding how the mutations disrupt normal cellular processes and contribute to the symptoms experienced by patients.
Every child deserves a chance at a better life, but for children and individuals diagnosed with the LMBRD2 genetic mutation, each day is a challenge. This rare genetic disorder affects mobility, feeding, speech, and vision, requiring constant support and specialized therapy to improve their quality of life.
