TSC Biosamples Available at No Cost to Researchers

In most cases, we can ship these samples at no charge to the investigator. To date, we have shipped 842 samples for use in diverse projects, ranging from quantification of sphingolipids in plasma to investigating mitochondrial DNA heteroplasmy.

Repurposing Partnering Opportunity with Healx

Healx, a Cambridge, UK biotech, is focused on repurposing known molecules for rare diseases. As part of their Rare Treatment Accelerator (RTA) programme, Healx is looking to partner with academic institutions who have identified drug repurposing opportunities for rare diseases but who lack financial and clinical resources to take these all the way to patients.  Healx could help with this as part of their Rare Treatment Accelerator 2.0 (RTA).

New Peer-to-Peer Listserv for Healthcare Professionals

The TSC Alliance invites healthcare professionals affiliated with a TSC Clinic, TSC Center of Excellence, or University Medical Center to subscribe to our new private listserv: p2p@lists.tscalliance.org. Its primary purpose is for members to pose TSC-related cases or questions to their peers for feedback. Members may also use the listserv to seek opportunities for collaboration on TSC-related projects. The listserv will be monitored to ensure it is being used for appropriate communications.
