About the Cause
Friedreich’s ataxia (FA) is a genetic, progressive neuromuscular disease. People with FA experience issues with balance and coordination of movement that lead to life-altering loss of mobility. Other common symptoms can include fatigue, serious heart conditions, scoliosis, and diabetes. FA is life-shortening and affects an estimated 5,000 individuals in the United States and 15,000 worldwide.
The Friedreich's Ataxia Research Alliance (FARA) supports research into this disease by funding competitive grants across the spectrum from basic research through drug development and clinical research programs in FA. FARA promotes collaboration among scientists, advocates for public-private partnerships, and hosts open forums for leading scientists to share their insights and ideas to advance therapeutic development for FA.
