Show Notes

Having a better understanding of what things are associated with LCHADD retinopathy can provide insight towards developing treatment. During this presentation, Dr. Gillingham will provide an update on the current results of a natural history study of 40 patients with LCHADD. She will also discuss what factors are associated with retinal structure and function, and how blood biomarkers or genetics might be related. Lastly, Dr. Gillingham will update our FAOD community about her lab’s efforts to treat retinopathy in an LCHADD mouse.
