The GBS|CIDP Walk & Roll program is a great opportunity to raise awareness, build a local support network, and get involved with GBS|CIDP community. This year we are pleased to announce that funds raised through the Walk & Roll program will be used to support research studies focused on the treatment and diagnosis for GBS|CIDP and variants of the condition such as MMN. Funds raised through our walk program will help to support our research initiatives including:
- Quicker Diagnosis – Developing methods to more rapidly diagnose GBS, CIDP and its variants, such as MMN.
- Better Treatments – Developing more effective treatments to limit the disease progression, prevent complications and reduce long-term adversities.
- Genetics – Identifying mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of family disorders.
