Our Mission

At “Cure SCG”, our mission is clear: to provide a dynamic and inclusive space for the exchange of ideas, research findings, and advancements in the field of LGMD, particularly focusing on the Sarcoglycanopathy gene. By facilitating collaboration and knowledge-sharing, we strive to propel LGMD research forward and make significant strides towards a cure.

Why LGMD? Why Now?

Limb Girdle Muscle Dystrophy poses unique challenges, and the urgency to find effective treatments has never been more critical. Our commitment to the cause stems from a deep understanding of the impact LGMD has on individuals and their families. By concentrating our efforts on the Sarcoglycanopathy gene, we aim to address a specific aspect of LGMD, paving the way for targeted therapies and, ultimately, a cure.

Empowering Research, Inspiring Hope

At the heart of Cure SCG is a commitment to empower researchers and inspire hope within the LGMD community. By providing a platform for the latest breakthroughs, clinical trials, and emerging therapies, we aim to catalyze progress and encourage a sense of optimism among those affected by LGMD.
