Why does CURE SYNGAP1 aka SRF matter?  Do PAGS make a difference?

Heck yes.

Empower Families - Support.  Educate.  Activate.  Coordinate. Use Money Catalytically - Tax advantage.  Pool.  Manage.  Make Catalytic.  Focus.  Manage. Partner with Science & Medicine - Push forward.  Connect efforts.  Focus on Tx.  Work in Clinic. Leverage Ecosystem.  Industry.  PAGs.  Superpags (CB, GG, ELF). Ensure Continuity.  Our kids will outlast us.  Our energy wanes.  Life happens.  Cure SYNGAP1 never stops focusing on the biggest challenge in our lives: SRD.

Because you VOLUNTEER

July 16, 2025. Week 29.

What is a natural history study (NHS)?  And why do we care?

We care because we haven’t done this before, heal those born with disease.

Natural history studies, which examine the progression of a disease over time, can be either retrospective or prospective. Retrospective studies analyze existing data, like medical records, while prospective studies collect new data over time. Both types are valuable for understanding a disease's course and informing research and treatment strategies.

Tuesday, March 18, 2025 - Week 12

SYNGAP1 & Unmet Need Preface  Let’s separate the notion of symptoms and disease description with lived caregiver and patient experience.  When you do this, charts about seizure progression and symptom list lose their sterile veneer and become horror stories.   This is critical because clinicians have become desensitized to patients' complaints and SYNGAP1 caregivers are tired of trying to explain to people how this disease hits you. SRD is slow moving, but suddenly changing and completely enervating. Medical: Existing treatments/polypharmacy is woefully inadequate & worsens as patients age:   Unrelenting intractable and worsening seizures cause side effects...
