Our Impact to Support Research & Advocacy.

 
Great strides have been made toward improving the lives of families affected by Bardet Biedl Syndrome through information, support and by advancing research and therapy in the last decade. The syndrome is accurately and promptly diagnosed much more often; the genetics of the syndrome have been deeply explored; and progress is being made in understanding the molecular basis of symptoms and in possible treatment for retinal degeneration.
