The Neurofibromatosis Network is delighted to bring you our new science column, The Network Edge, written by science writer Kim Hunter-Schaedle, PhD, providing a summary of recent highlights from NF research and clinical trials. The Network, through advocacy on Capitol Hill and direct funding of research, plays a central role in progress toward a cure.
CONTRIBUTE TO KEEP NF RESEARCH FUNDED
Every three months The Network Edge will bring you the latest research news as compiled by science writer, Kim Hunter-Schaedle, PhD. The goal is to keep you abreast of advancements in treatment and clinical care for all forms of NF.
