Jain Foundation Inc

While the focus of the Jain Foundation is Dysferlinopathy (LGMD2B/R2/Miyoshi Myopathy1), the resulting scientific advances and collaborations that we make have a broader impact on human health through their relevance to other muscle disorders, degenerative diseases, and normal aging. The Foundation takes a hands-on approach to funding. We closely monitor the progress of every project we fund and keep track of results and shifting timelines through quarterly conference calls with researchers and site visits. We also support internal programs and initiatives. Our goal is to fund all possible approaches to a cure and help with patient diagnosis to ensure that treatments reach those who need them.
