How you can help

Put your money to work for muscle and brain disorders in children.

Kids Neuroscience Centre uses donated funds in three ways:

  • It funds the purchase of cutting edge laboratory equipment that is not supported by grants. For example, we has been saving for antibodies which we use to diagnose malfunctions in brain or muscle cells.
  • It funds specific research teams, such as the Neuromuscular Gene Discovery team who work tirelessly to discover and diagnose rare neuromuscular disorders.
  • It funds students, scientists and doctors through stipends. Attracting talented researchers to work with us comes at a price. In 2015, we funded one PhD student and four Honours students to work with the various teams.

1,350 families benefited from our diagnostic tests in 2016. Each test costs Kids Neuroscience Centre $100 and is done free-of-charge. That adds up to be a lot of money.
