“By combining and focusing our knowledge and experiences we can help speed the development of safe treatments and make lives better. KCIAF.org is for patients, families, scientists, and physicians to all learn together.”
Our Mission
We are a new and small organization with simple but ambitious goals:
Encourage and promote efforts to find effective treatments for the wide range of symptoms which can be caused by KCNMA1 mutations
Provide opportunities for patients and families to meet, whether in-person or otherwise, and share their experiences
“My lab is working on figuring out how and why the various mutations in the KCNMA1 channel cause the many problems we see. We hope that this KCIAF partnership with patients, parents, and caregivers will advance our understanding of symptoms and help point the way to effective therapies.”
