Why research FOXG1 syndrome

FOXG1 syndrome is a rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorder involving an estimated incidence of 2.8 – 3.5 per 100,000 live births. Currently, there are about 1,100 known patients diagnosed with FOXG1 syndrome worldwide and the diagnosis rate is increasing year-over-year (according to the FOXG1 Research Foundation). We aim to deliver hope and promising treatment options for every child who has FOXG1 syndrome.
