The Rachel Fund for Myotonic Dystrophy

Thanks to a generous donation provided by Tribute Communities, Muscular Dystrophy Canada was able to establish the Rachel Fund for Myotonic Dystrophy in 2006.

The specific objectives of the Rachel Fund are:

1. Research on therapeutics (pharmacological, cell based, genetic) and/or translational aspects that pertain directly to myotonic dystrophy
2. Research on the genetic, cellular, or biochemical processes involved in myotonic dystrophy
