TAKE ACTION AND SUPPORT OUR WORK

CureSHANK was formed in 2019 to accelerate the development of treatments for SHANK-related disorders.

If your life has been impacted by Phelan-McDermid syndrome or other shankopathies, you understand how important it is to identify and fund projects that overcome critical barriers to successful drug development and to coordinate scientific efforts to improve efficiency and speed in the field.

To achieve our goals, we need your fundraising help, and we have many ways to maximize your efforts and contributions.
