Chromosome 8P

The Project 8p Two Year Research Plan, first published last year, will undergo regular reevaluation and revision as our research projects provide new insights into the disease, as technological advances are made, and as the wants and needs of 8p heroes and their caregivers evolve. Later this year, a new research segment on Assistive Technology will be added to the plan with the goal of partnering with early-stage companies developing augmentative devices and neural interfaces to evaluate and test new technologies that have the potential to improve the lives of 8p heroes in the near term. We hope you’ll share your thoughts on this new research segment as we work to formalize it in the coming months.
