Working together to defeat Stargardt disease

Описание к видео Working together to defeat Stargardt disease

Did you know that one in 10,000 people worldwide suffer from an inherited retinal disease, such as Stargardt disease, and lose sight? Stargardt disease is caused by a fault in a specific gene, called ABCA4, and to this date it is incurable. To change this, Munnever Burcu (Ghent University) and 13 other researchers with different backgrounds working all over Europe joined forces in the StarT Consortium. Their goal is to find a cure by investigating the disease from different angles. Burcu explains how they want to approach this.

Research supported by the European Commission - Marie Curie Actions. More info on www.startn.eu
