Mitigating Tourette Syndrome with Gene-Based Therapy
Collin is a member of our Board of Directors and is currently working towards his Ph.D. at The University of Arizona. He has the vision of one day identifying the genetic causality of Tourette’s, along with gene-based therapies to mitigate its effects.
This year, UBA awarded a $7,800 Research Grant to The University of Arizona in support of Collin’s current research with Dr. Michael Hammer’s laboratory in the BIO5 Institute. We look forward to supporting Collin’s work in the future.
