| Mission: | The mission of the Center for NeuroGenetics (CNG) is to integrate molecular, genetic and clinical research to define the causes of neurodegenerative disease that will enable the development of effective treatment strategies. The CNG will use an interdisciplinary approach to achieve its goals, combining experts in clinical and basic research with complementary skill sets. This approach will allow a rigorous investigation into the molecular causes, consequences and possible interventions for known disease that affect nervous and muscle systems as well as the identification of mutations causing novel single-gene neurogenetic disorders. |
